PRESS RELEASE:
Burlington, Vermont - January 19, 2010
Vermont Haiti Project continues to look forward in spite of the devastating earthquake. We have made a commitment to the communities we serve in Port au Prince and in the mountain village of Desab.
We will maintain our assistance in providing bio-sand water filters, supporting the rural clinic and the rebuilding of the school. VHP stresses the importance at this time of doing what we are familiar with, that each organization or group has its own niche to fill.
Haiti will be rebuilt as it has always been; rock by rock, block by block, neighborhood by neighborhood, and community by community.
We are urging people to support grass root organizations with a standing history of working with the people of Haiti. We are encouraging the exchange of resources and knowledge amongst the many organizations helping out in this difficult time of great need.
