We’ve been making some major progress on the construction of the new orphanage. We thought we’d share some pics of the digging of the septic tank and general construction.

Back breaking work. We’re so grateful for all the local workers that are doing such a great job.

We still have a long way to go. But look how far we are progressing

It’s been just over a month since the devastating earthquake in Haiti. Rescuing the people of Haiti has been a herculean effort by so many people around the world. Our immediate attention in cooperation with IAF has been to ensure that the of Foyer de Sion children are safe, secure and fed.  There are many, many people who continue to help us in this effort.

We are pleased to announce we received a generous donation of a complete solar pumping solution from SolarWellPumps.com. Learning of our efforts to build the new orphanage they designed a system for the exact needs of the new orphanage and quickly crated and shipped it so that it could be immediately airlifted to Haiti.  Solar Well Pumps is an amazing business that supports relief efforts at home and around the world (as well as providing world class well drilling supplies and services to their customers).

We especially want to thank Brandy Nelson and Peggy Nelson-Magaria for all the work they did to make this happen.

We would also like to thank Robin Gudgel at www.Midnitesolar.com who jumped in at the last minute and overnighted a critical circuit combiner to Miami so that it could make the shipment.  Robin is a great guy who has built one of the premier solar power component and accesorry companies in the United States.
