Helping Hand for Relief and Development has extended its Orphans Sponsorship campaign
to Haiti. You can now sponsor orphans in Haiti through our Orphan Sponsor Program.
We have started by sponsoring fifty children, and plan on extending the program
in the future.
The OSP team had the opportunity of visiting some orphans on our recent trip and
recognized the responsibility that has been neglected to be met towards the Haitian
children.
In Haiti, one in every three children dies before the age of five due to malnutrition
or health concerns. Along with lacking proper sustenance and health, a suitable
education is also absent for much of the population. Education, albeit important
to the Haitian people, is increasingly expensive, causing about at least a third
of the children left without schooling.
Although the Muslim population in Haiti is small, we plan on catering to the needs
of Muslim and non-Muslim children alike, to ensure that they have the food, shelter,
good health, and education that all children deserve.
