Earthquake Update 5

From Executive Director Brian Kelso, during his March 3rd-5th trip to Haiti:

Wednesday Update | Thursday Update

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010
Things went well today. Met the cargo guy (Haitian Hans). Seems very professional and genuine. The hopes are that the container can be trucked here on Friday. We really need this NGO and Marcel’s brother-in-law is working with a Haitian attorney to expedite the process. I would love to get that settle tomorrow. The Guest House is great! Wow! You wait until you see how strong this guy is building this thing. (I took video) He’s moving as fast as possible but he is at a stage that just takes time. Spoke to the owner of Wazo Hotel. And he is going to give us a break on the price for the teams and allow us to double up the rooms. All the food in the containers has been distributed. We don’t have any food in the containers just water, clothes and supplies. We need to make sure we have food for the team March 20-27th to disburse.
 
Tomorrow will met with the Rio Vista PauP Pastor so that he can get his “boxes.” Hopefully meet with the mayor to talk about food distribution and tent villages. Move forward with the container and NGO.
