What a Difference a Year Makes!

A year ago we were writing our first check for uniforms in Haiti!  The year has flown by and the uniforms have flown out the door.  Over the next two months we hope to cross the 6,000 mark!

Our first check to Haiti....


Sent in this lovely "packaging"(torn out of a notebook on the fly at the bank)


A year later we are sending uniforms to the same school in La Vallee, Haiti so that ALL of those children can attend school again this year.  Additionally, we were able to also provide uniforms for two more schools in La Vallee for a total of 600 children!  As you can see we have grown-up a little since our first distribution!  I distinctly remember the feelings of excitement and anxiety we had sending our the funds for our first project, but all that seems to fade away when we see the smiling faces of children attending school, ready to learn and ready to change the future!



I cannot wait to see where we will be in a year AND where the children we have helped get to school will be.  If that isn't inspiration for a Monday I don't know what is!
