B the Hope for Haiti provides humanitarian aid to Haitian children through satellite schools, meals, medical clinics, and construction projects. They bring donated supplies from Canada on missions to feed, teach, and care for underprivileged children, as well as build facilities like bathrooms and a storefront. The photos show volunteers treating illnesses, distributing food and water, and teaching programs to help break the cycle of poverty in Haiti.

1. B the Hope for Haiti
Mission
Feb. 2013

2. Ready to cross into Haiti from the D.R with over 700 lbs
of supplies donated by Canadians with the continued
support of Canjet Airlines.

3. Our young missionaries being greeted by the
beautiful children in one of the satellite schools.

4. We brought 1000’s of
elastics and taught them
how to make and play
yogi ropes. A simple joy
of childhood.

5. Our school kids waiting for their special meal. 

6. Each meal is divided into many generous portions to feed the second wave, the
children of the neighborhood not able to be in a school…they will go days without
food…
Like the loaves and the fish, a blessing for all.

8. Offering safe drinking water from baggies.

9. Its hard not to question building codes and safety standards…

10. Half of all Haitian
children are malnourished
and only half of school age
kids will go to school. A
chance at a good education
can break the cycle of
poverty for so many.

11. Our little girl. Over a year after the surgery we provided her, she is
thriving. Such a joy to see her shy little smile and watch her grow.

12. • We saw these twins
everyday outside the
main school, Its hard
to say who they
belong to but they
seemed to be fed and
illness free. They
melted our hearts…

13. The Canadian funded bathrooms. After a brief setback (the rooftop water tank was
stolen and had to be replaced) it is fully functioning, including shower. It is a joy to see
our little students coming out of the washroom with smiles and dignity. They have
been taught the importance of washing hands.

14. The main school compound from the outside. To the right you can see the
cement roof box built to protect the water tank. To the left of the red gate is
the room that will house the new store front.

15. Pastor Augusto Chavez. A Peruvian with his
ministry in the D.R. he is our friend and mission
leader. The schools were built by his hand and
his love for the Haitian Children.

16. • Feeding the many,
Dedra has now
moved from the U.S
to D.R to follow
Gods calling for her
to serve the Haitian
people.

17. Waiting outside to be seen in our meds clinic.

18. This little guy was treated for an upper respiratory infection.

19. A severe case of impetigo, a common and often untreated infection. We
treated this poor little girl both orally and topically and hope to see a happy
healthy baby in a few weeks.

20. • A scabies bath with
love.

21. This is just a portion of our pharmacy made possible by meds donations from
friends and family or purchased care of Fernhill Schools , Burlington Christian
Academy and St Raphael Catholic school.

22. The ‘Trekker', saving lives by providing safe drinking
water to so many. Kindly provided by Global Medic and
financed through the generosity of Senator O'Connor
School (Tor) and St Luke School (Oak).
Water from
the well before
and after using
the trekker
Incredible !

23. • Hundreds of shoes
found thankful feet
care of kind
donations. This little
guy cant believe his
new Adidas!

25. Mixing the concrete for the continued construction of the new storefront. Behind is
the security window installed for the sale of clean water and bread. This wonderful
project, when complete, will supply clean water for sale where it is normally difficult
to come by, subsidize expenses of the school and teach valuable skills to our students.

26. The inside of the new store front with the door to the new well in the rear. We have
not yet completely financed the project but have come so far thanks to the generous
donations from Empower Global, Holy Rosary Men's Club, Sunshine Building
Maintenance and so many friends and family.

27. Watching the progress of construction.

28. Boys and girls of every age loved the face painting.

29. Teaching and implementing the
world geography program. The
children were so excited by the
awesome new resources.

30. Talking to teachers and parents about
following Gods plan for love and
commitment in the family, positive
child rearing, being financially
responsible to family. Understanding
how commitment to one partner can
keep them safe from Aids was a very
popular topic…

31. Teaching and implementing the Moringa program.

32. This little guy has made a toy from broken styrofoam and string. The many donated toys, balls
and crafts allows them to be children.

33. The daily struggle for nutritious food
and safe water…

34. Our oldest boys thrilled with their new hats, very cool.

35. Our youngest missionary face painting the boys before they come for
treatment of fungal infection common on boys heads.

36. Life in Haiti is hard. Most live on less than $2 a day and will eat less than 1
meal a day. The country has hundreds of thousands of orphans, many who
are alone on the streets. Sometimes it is more than our hearts can take….

37. A blessing to have captured this picture. We spotted this girl as we drove by,
wearing one of the dresses made by the ladies at TLC and donated on a
previous mission. 

38. Peaking to see the
painting progress on the
main school

39. Painting almost complete, it looks great!

40. We are so thankful to all our Dominican and Haitian friends that
keep us safe!

41. Prov. 31:8 “Open your mouth for the dumb, for the rights of all
the unfortunate. Open your mouth, judge righteously, and
defend the rights of the afflicted and needy.”
