Thanks so much for your support
Thanks so much for your support

On Wednesday, June 13th, GlobalGiving will be matching all donations by 50%! This is a fantastic opportunity to make your donations go even further in support of youths affected by disaster.

By donating on Wednesday, you can be sure that when disaster strikes, we'll be there ensuring that young people affected by disaster are involved in their own recovery. Your donations ensure we have the resources we need to equip sport leaugues and work with youth groups to develop recovery programmes.

Any donation, whatever its size, will help us continue working with youths in disaster zones. If you can’t donate yourself, you can still help by letting others know about this fantastic matching opportunity. Please email friends and family or spread the word on Facebook.

You’ve already made so much great work possible in Haiti, and we hope that on Wednesday, you’ll be a part of helping survivors around the world in 2012.

Thanks so much, and our warmest regards.

It’s been almost five months since we left Haiti and the fantastic youth-led projects made possible.

Since leaging Haiti, we've been preparing to respond to future disasters by fundraising, business planning, and forging new partnerships so that we’ll be ready when the next disaster strikes.

While we’ve been busy building our capacity to respond to disasters worldwide in 2012, we know that there are youth-groups the world over working hard to better their communities. When disaster strikes in 2012, as it inevitably will, we’ll be there, ready to work with young people affected by disaster.

We’ll keep you informed of our future plans as they develop, and we hope that when we’re needed again, you’ll be there with us as you were in Haiti.

Thanks again for all you made possible in Haiti, and we look forward to working with you again in disaster zones around the world in 2012.

Youth led projects don’t always get as much attention as they ought to. Sometimes they’re even perceived negatively – as disorganised and inefficient. But we know that working with young people in disaster zones is always time well spent.

These young people will be the force driving long-term recovery, and empowering them by nurturing their interests and partnering with them couldn’t be more important.

In Haiti your generosity allowed us to partner with Haitian youth groups to build trash cans, support sports leagues, and clean up the streets. These projects gave vulnerable young people a chance to learn how to work as a team, budget, and see a project through. Those skills are invaluable.

Your generosity gave Haiti’s future leaders a chance to gain confidence, learn, and grow. Today, as we prepare to deploy whenever and wherever the next disaster strikes, we know that youths around the world will be at the heart of our work.

Together, we can empower young people and help them build a better tomorrow. We hope you’re as excited as we are about what we can achieve in the years to come in disaster zones around the world.

Thanks so much for all you’ve already given, and we look forward to working with you in the future.

A Big "Thank you" from Haiti!

As 2011 draws to a close, we can’t believe all that you’ve helped us achieve. With your support, we’ve been able to help youth groups play sport, keep their streets clean, and learn all about first aid. Much remains to be done, but thanks to your generosity, hundreds of Haitians will be able to start 2012 with hope.

As we approach Christmas, we hope you’ll encourage friends and family to follow in your footsteps by sharing this page and encouraging them to make a tax deductible donation.

You can also help us win extra funding this holiday season by giving gifts to friends and family through this page.

To give a gift to a loved one, simply go to the project page and find the “Gift idea” button over the donation amounts. The project that raises the most through these gifts will win extra funding!

One last time, we’d like to extend our sincerest thanks to you for your generosity over the past year. Merry Christmas, and we hope you have the happiest of New Years.

As the Holiday season begins, we can’t believe that our volunteers have been in Haiti for nearly 18 months! Youths have been a part of our programmes from the start, and their football leagues, youth groups, and community clean-ups have been made possible by your generosity.

As Americans across the country get ready to gather their families and give thanks, we hope that you’ll take a little extra joy this holiday season because your donations have given Haitian youths a reason to be thankful.

This Holiday Season, we’re working to bring hope to Haiti by Giving the Gift of Education to 100 primary school students and the 120 young adults in our English programme.

We hope you’ll help by giving a gift today or simply spreading the word about how easy it is to help Haitians build a better tomorrow.  Thanks so much for all you’ve already done to help youths in Haiti, and a Happy ThanksGiving from all of us at EDV!
