Dear Friends and Partners,
This report is another chance for DMI and team to thank you for supporting project Corona Virus Relief!
Your support helps ensure that we can continue to help our community. We know there are a lot of other ways you could have spent this money, but chose this organization, we feel privileged that you chose to invest in this work. We thank you for being part of this community and we'll continue to honor you. We want to make sure you see the impact your donations are having on those you chose to support and help.
We want to give you an update regarding the impact this project is having to bring sustainable access to clean water and sanitation to neighboring schools in the water-stressed region of Haiti.
As you might be aware, in Haiti only 20% of the rural population has access to a basic water service while 80 percent of the rural population have no access to any kind of water system. What is special about this project, is that we are trying to create a system powered kiosks on school premises. Improving access to clean water in schools and communities, this means providing a safe and healthy learning environment for children. Therefore we can eliminate time wasted collecting water, minimizing the risk of water-borne illnesses, thereby contributing to their participation and performance at school, particularly for girls. During our multiple site visits, we realized that the children of the remote Primary schools' areas we visited cannot wait to get access to safe drinking water, to wash their hands to protect them against the disease.
COVID-19 has brought uncertain, challenging times for all of us. No matter the obstacles, Kris and DMI remain committed to saving lives by providing vulnerable families with hygiene kits and other life-saving assistance. A simple kit – consisting of soap, water purification tools, and hygiene products many of us take for granted – could mean the difference between life and death for the people we serve—and your generosity is what makes this positive change possible.
There's still time for your compassion to go even further. Join us in making the world a little brighter by sharing the link below!
Thank you for taking the time to catch up with us.
Many, Many Blessings!
And please stay healthy!!!
