Books for Haiti



As you know, the 2010

earthquake left Haiti devastated. The children's orphanage,

which is now called Ca-Ira Village, was destroyed and several children and staff persons died. The children's living quarters and school have since been rebuilt. The children are sleeping soundly in their dorm rooms and classes are back in session.

But there is a great need

that the children of your congregation can meet. In Haiti, where only 50% of the children attend school and the adult literacy rate is only 60%, books are scarce and reading is a luxury. What few books the children of Ca-Ira Village had were ruined in the earthquake. New books in the French language are needed!

Every $10 the children of your congregation donate will buy one book. If 100 children raised $10 each there would be 100 new books in the Ca-Ira Village library. I believe we can do even more. Let's work together to fill the Ca-Ira Village library with books. Let's provide books that our Haitian children can read, study, and enjoy!

A virtual book drive will provide our Haitian children with books to read, study, and enjoy.

Our Goal - 500 books
