I’m so moved by the response to the hurricane appeal I sent out last week.  Thanks to your help, we’ve been able to increase the amount of money we send each week to pay for the meals at St. Clare’s.  The number of children coming to eat is still up about two to three hundred/day more than usual (1,500 + are coming) but Fr. Jean-Juste says things appear to be stabilizing.  On most days, there’s enough food to feed all the children and some adults.  In addition to buying more food at the farmers’ market, donations are being used to provide purified drinking water for the children.  Piti piti na rive!  – Margaret Trost
