    WE ARE PROVIDING FOOTAGE FROM SALESIAN MISSIONS SCHOOLS IN PORT-AU-PRINCE SHOWING CHILDREN THERE, BEFORE THE EARTHQUAKE. WE NEED TO PUT A FACE ON THOSE WHO HAVE BEEN KILLED IN HAITI, ESPECIALLY THE CHILDREN.

     

    In the wake of the earthquake that devastated Port-au-Prince, Haiti, Salesian Missions is working around the clock to pull together emergency response teams and fundraising efforts to assist in the relief efforts. Among those in need of assistance are those at Salesian buildings in the Cité Soleil area of Port-au-Prince. At least 500 students are believed to be buried in the rubble of the compound that houses the renowned "National School of Arts and Trades" and other schools operated by Salesian Missions. Salesian Missions not only operated schools for thousands of students in Port-au-Prince, but services of all kinds for 25,000 of Haiti's poorest children. Funds raised for Haiti relief will go to purchase emergency relief kits, food, tents, bottled water, clothing, medical items and satellite telephones to re-establish communications.
