URGENT CALL
While in Haiti recently, GRODYSH Int'l. Inc. President and Vice-President made a list of several items urgently needed for the security and health of our children at the Future Of Haiti Orphanage, as well as basic needs.
They came out to a total of around $23,000. A benefactor on the West Coast has offered to give us $11,500 IF we can raise another $11,500 by next Friday!!!!! We are currently at $6,795 and have $4,705 more to raise by the end of the day tomorrow!
What better game can you play? This is a game of heart, a game of love, a game of helping children and making the world a better place!
Are you willing to play? We have received $500 so far and are counting down. Here is the list of our needs:
GRODYSH-FOHO IMMEDIATE NEEDS MAY 2013
The Future Of Haiti Orphanage
Food for the month $ 1,000
Kitchen enclosure to keep children out $ 1,000
of outdoor kitchen and out of danger
Security Gate Re-Located* $ 1,300
*we installed this gate in September, at the entranceway to our back alley. The first resident inside the gate is selling things out of her house (e.g. charcoal for cooking) and leaves the door section of the gate open all the time, defeating its purpose of security
Security House Construction Finished $ 2,300
(Security Guard will sleep here)
Solar Energy Equipment Installed $ 3,300
(this will allow full-time internet
access, phones, lights and a refrigerator)
It has not been delivered to the orphanage and is waiting to be properly installed with iron cases to secure them. The cables we were sold in Miami are the wrong ones, we need to re-purchase the correct ones in Haiti at twice the price
The children all need new sandals $ 350
Liline (our star girl) needs this to pay $ 500 (JUST DONATED)
for her last year of high school and graduate
in a few month. She was attending up until about 1 month ago, when they asked her not to come any more because her school hadn’t been paid.
Plumbing repairs in house $6,000
EMERGENCY: Our temporary port-a-potties from the earthquake are on their last legs. They are a total liability as if a kid falls though the breaking plastic, they will land in a quicksand-like substance of human waste. In the orphanage building, we have broken sinks to replace both upstairs and downstairs, and plumbing to re-do (it was not installed properly by volunteers after the earthquake). The staff upstairs are unable to use the shower, so we have a large plastic barrel in the shower and do “bird baths”. The sink is this bathroom does not have water running out of it.
Electrical repairs of the house, fixing all $2,000
outlets, installing a few lighting fixtures (we have almost none right now)
License for Humanitarian School $ 2,000
Completion of NGO Status in Haiti $ 1,500
This is the Non-Profit Equivalent
(stands for non-governmental org.)
Payment to Notary (legal person) to do $ 1,500
paperwork to secure paperwork for ½-acre next door
TOTAL NEEDED: $ 22,750
We REALLY need your help to make a donation NOW. Our Paypal account (link below) accepts all major credit cards.
Thank you in advance.
