“Hi, I am hoping you have not forgotten me here in Milot Haiti! Our many houses are looking very drab and certainly need a coat of paint to brighten them up. I simply cannot afford to buy paint and the poor people just don’t have the means to buy food never mind paint. As you can well imagine a coat of paint on a drab looking house can make a huge difference psychologically and otherwise and can have a great healing effect on family and neighbors. I have managed to restore many old houses and have built 30 new houses with funds from medical volunteers at the hospital and would be SOOOOOOO very grateful if you could please help me with some paint……that would be just so wonderful and make a huge difference in the lives of these poor people who literally struggle to get by on a daily bases. Many thanks for your wonderful work. I was so delighted to meet your representative here in Haiti sometime in November and look forward to hearing from you. God bless.”
