Since the earthquake in Haiti (1/12/2010), Help Haiti Now has been working non-stop to deliver humanitarian relief in the town of Montrouis, 50 miles north of Port Au Prince.
CHILDREN'S HOME:
The need for shelter for children became an immediate priority. Help Haiti Now has rented a large house which is now home for 15 children and provides part-time work for about eight adults. Your donations have assisted in providing a stable environment for these homeless and parentless children.

SHELTER SUPPORT: Help Haiti Now also helped relocate 250 homeless people from Port Au Prince to Montrouis following the earthquake.
Initially, two schools and a church were made into emergency shelters. Now those families are living in a tent city in Montrouis. Help Haiti Now continues to provide food, clothing and as much medicine and medical help as possible. It is our hope to see that all the children of school age are enrolled with tuition, uniforms, and shoes. We look to our donors with gratitude so that support for these refugees continues.
