Quick Update! Please Read

As you know, the immediate needs of our foundation are constantly changing in order to aid in the urgent needs of the Haitian people and children. Cash and Fuel continue to be an urgent need for our team at this time. Here is the most up-to-date listings of immediate needs and ones we can put on the back-burner for now:

IMMEDIATE NEEDS:

CASH!! Although resources are coming into Haiti, the distribution system is failing at this time, leaving our staff to buy things as needed from the area. Unfortunately the price of these items has doubled now. The more money we get them, the more aggressive they can be in helping those children and families in urgent need! The donation will ultimately dictate HOW we will move forward in the coming days, months and years as a foundation. We really need this more than actual supplies at this time.

NO LONGER IMMEDIATE NEED AT THIS TIME - Please wait until further notice before calling into the office about these items. Things may change again, but for now, please hold back your calls on assisting with these items.

  • SECURITY
  • AIRCRAFT
  • WATER PURIFICATION

Our team is still on the ground aiding in the relief and assessing the current situation. They are quickly and strategically planning for the near future! These items could be of great value as we move forward. Please email to info@restavekfreedom.org
