Seed Hope in Haiti
Our special collection to aid the victims of the earthquake disaster in Haiti raised $3,330 (as of the end of January). These funds were matched two-to-one by our Mission Investment Fund for a total of $9,900. Three quarters of these funds ($7,492.50) will go to Haiti through
Presbyterian Disaster Assistance and one quarter ($2,497.50) will go directly to
GHESKIO, a clinic in Haiti that fights infectious disease and that is serving as a temporary field hospital and refugee camp. If you haven't given to this cause already, please consider multiplying your donation by giving through the church.
