Greetings from The Love & Haiti Project!
Our deepest, most heart-felt thanks for all your support and keeping track of our progress. This journey has been absolutely remarkable and we hope you have been able to easily follow all the excitement through our reports and website.
Here's what is currently evolving for The Love & Haiti Project: Cal-Earth in Haiti! Over the years, we've had the privilege to formulate a partnership with the amazing Cal-Earth Institute, the very place where SuperAdobe Earthbag Building was developed. We are currently raising $8,000 to hold the first ever, Cal-Earth Superadobe Earthbuilding Workshop in Haiti this winter and we need your help. The money is to cover 2 Cal-Earth teachers to fly to Haiti, have a place to stay with food and the bare essentials, and to cover the materials required for instructing 2 different SuperAdobe workshops. Each workshop will build an entire structure from start to finish and each student will receive the tools and certifications to continue using this method in their community.
With your help, we can continue our mission of “teaching the teachers” and build strong leaders that make a real difference in their communities.
Thank you again for your support. We couldn’t do the work without you.
Looking forward,
Benar & Cassandra
