Our Little Roses Assists Youngest Haitian Earthquake Victims. Let Us Not Forget Them.

Help is still needed and will be for a long time to come. 

 Our Little Roses Foreign Mission Society has arranged with The Right Reverend Jean-Zache Duracin., Episcopal Bishop of Haiti to receive IRS Tax Deductible Funds through donations sent to OLRFMS to help Haiti ’s destitute children... Bishop Duracin continues to provide assistance to homeless and injured children in the aftermath of the January 12th 7.0 earthquake that wiped out all local Haitian services. Aid has been pouring into Haiti from many sources but Bishop Duracin’s concern is for the children with serious injuries and the homeless ones that the Episcopal Church is treating and providing makeshift shelter on the grounds of the destroyed Trinity Cathedral in Port au Prince and also in other church centers in the countryside.

Thousands of children left homeless and those suffering serious injuries from the devastation are still in need of medical attention and shelter. Funds are needed to help build shelters and purchase medical and other items that are not free. The earthquake and continued aftershocks leveled most homes, shopping centers, government, and hospital buildings and destroyed much of the country’s infrastructure. It is reported that more that 200,000 are dead and that three-quarters of the Capital is destroyed.

The Rt. Rev Leo Frade, Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese of Southeast Florida and Chairman of OLRFMS made arrangements with Bishop Duracin that all funds intended to aid homeless and hurting Haitian children through the Episcopal Church of Haiti Special Children’s Fund will be properly administered for that purpose.

Please send your IRS Tax deductible Constitutions to OLRFMS, P.O. Box 464 . Somerset , VA 22942 . And please make a note on your check, Haiti Children’s Fund. We accept contributions by Visa and Master Card through PayPal. Please see instructions for contributions on our Website. Contact OLRFMS office for more information: US (800) 849-9252 or (540) 832 5141.
