Haiti Current Events

There is major rioting going on in Haiti right now. This is what we have heard from Chances for Children:

"Over the last week there has been rioting and protests over the rising prices of food and the number of people starving - with little assistance from world relief organizations. The riots started in Cayes and have now moved into PAP. All government offices are closed and there have been 5 people killed. All our staff and all the children at the Creche are safe and removed from the situation. "

There is also another family in Haiti right now picking up their son to bring him home. Please keep them in your thoughts I hope they were able to make their appointment today and are able to get back to Florida WITH their son ASAP.
