NEWS FROM OUR SMALL COMMUNITY OF FAMILY
This Christmas holiday the children of Our Small Community of Family felt super blessed. Starting with a party hosted by Hunger Relief International on December 19th and ending with a Christmas Eve’s party in Fonds des Negres which is located on the Southeast of Haiti. Thanks to our longtime friend and partner Roslyn Parker from Travel To Do Good who enlisted the help of Ellen Burton and Jana Warren, these ladies recruited their family and friends to each sponsor a child from Our Small Community of Family and bless the child with a new outfit, new shoes, a toy and new pajamas. Thank you so much ladies and thank you to all the sponsors.
We also extend our gratitude to Ms. Anita McGruder, her network of friends and her organization, Simunye for allowing the children to experience the showers of the abundant blessings of God this holiday season. With their help and that of some of our faithful supporters, we were able to feed and distribute gifts to more than 60 destitute children and 25 adults in Fonds des Negres.
MESI ANPIL! MERCI BEAUCOUP! MUCHAS GRACIAS! THANK YOU SO MUCH TO YOU ALL!
WHAT AN EXCITING HOLIDAY WE HAD!
We are ever so grateful to God for our volunteers who are the heartbeat of our organization. We value the passion and energy they bring to ensure that the children of Kominote Ti Fanmi Nou de Diakonos have a sense of belonging to a large loving family.
First, thank you to James Weldon for helping improve the living conditions in the children’s home just in time for the holidays; Our faithful Godmothers, Cindy Sterling and Kaylin Silva who are always so instrumental in helping us bring joy to the children of Small Community of Family. This year they went out of their way to travel to the cold city of Chicago to collect and bring back gifts for the children. Special thanks to Maribel Sisney who graciously donated her 1 day off to come and help bring gifts to orphans and needy children in Haiti. And last but definitely not least, thanks to Yui Young, Martee Henri, and Isis Prince who have gone over and above to see to it that the children of Our Small Community of Family enjoyed and fun filled Christmas holiday.
