ANOTHER MICHIGAN GROUP!

August Michigan Group 2007

Well, Steve Fair brought in another group this year! This group of 12 was amazing in the work they got accomplished. They hauled sand, dug the foundation for the new kitchen/dining hall, built two complete bunk beds, loved on all the babies, and worshiped with us at the local church. Steve always brings in a great group, well organized and ready for whatever Haiti can dish out. We look forward to all of them visiting Hands and Feet Project again, soon! Drex, Jo and Michelle

THE WHOLE GANG!

All the kids and Nannies!
We finally got all the kids and Nannies together for a photo first! Have you ever tried to get 23 kids looking their best and at the camera at one time?? We were having Marc and Giovani’s birthday parties when the idea for a group photo came about. You will just have to visit Hands and Feet Project to see how “adorable” our kids really are! Drex, Jo and Michelle

ANOTHER NEW BABY!

MELUSA RABEL

August 6th was another special day for Hands and Feet Project as Melusa (pronounced Melissa) joined our family here at Cyvadier. Melusa Rabel (about 8 months old) has no mother and her father deserted her when she was 3 months old. She spent the last 5 months in a hand to mouth situation with her aunt who is only 16 years old. The aunt just couldn’t take care of her any more. She was glad to be relieved of this chore and soon left for Port-Au-Prince to live with a friend. Melusa is adorable. After being treated for scabies she will start to regain some hair and color that was lost to malnutrition. She joins 4 others at about the same age. All of them are standing holding on to things. Pray for us and the nannys as all these little ones start to walk!!! This little girl is not yet sponsored. Contact Joel if you’d like to help. Drex, Jo and Michelle
