Thanks for keeping a roof over Wisly's head

On behalf of Wisly, "Thank You" so much!
On behalf of Wisly, "Thank You" so much!

Thanks so much for helping to provide a safe home for Wisly.

Wisly is twelve years old. His dad died in the 2010 earthquake, leaving his mom to look after ten children. She couldn't provide for them all, so she abandoned Wisly and two of his brothers at the HTDC orphanage.

Wisly’s mom hoped the orphanage could keep a roof over his head, but safe houses large enough for all the kids are very expensive in Port-au-Prince. The orphanage can’t afford to pay it’s own rent and, without your help, Wisly was in danger of becoming a homeless street-kid.

But now, because of you, Wisly will continue to have a safe home. Your donations will help pay the rent, and provide caregivers, water and electricity for Wisly for a year*.

Wisly has a bright future because you gave. There are so many things you could have spent your hard earned money on, but you chose Wisly. Thanks so much.

We’ll keep updating you about Wisly and all his friends at the Hands Together to Defend the Children Orphanage through this project’s parent page, Provide a Safe Home for Haitian Orphans. If you ever have any questions about how we're using your donation, please email Andy@IDVolunteers.org. We’d love to hear from you!

Thanks again for making Wisly’s future bright, and our warmest regards!

*Please note, that the orphanage is home to around thirty children. Your donations to this project will cover Wisly’s share of the costs over a year, but will be spent on all the children in parallel as we fundraise for each in turn.
