Progress Update! This progress update is probably long due!
First, the family is still healthy and happy :-). Everyone is still camping outside of the old house in Port-Au-Prince. The relief doesn't seem to be getting to them in any kind of mass fashion, but that's OK because they are still getting what they need.
Chelsea has stepped up big time and committed over 10k of her own money to help finance the land in Athis! This will secure the land so that we can start building the new house! This is obviously another milestone, and shows Chelsea's personal dedication.
Andre is set to fly out to Port-Au-Prince on March 8th. He will be able to help orchestrate the land purchase and help his father with the building of the house. Chelsea plans to join him in late March.
With 3 events planned (see the Events page), we should be able to raise enough money to get them a formidable structure by the Summer!
Also! A very nice man named Tony took this picture of Andre's families tent! WOW!
CAN WE PLEASE GET THEM OUT OF THIS TENT AND INTO STABLE HOUSING!!! :-)
