Haiti Relief Effort
My project will benefit the people in Haiti.
After the 2010 Earthquake on January 12th,
Over 1,000,000 people became homeless,
around 300,000 people injured, and
230,000 people were identified as deceased.
An estimated 250,000 residences,
30,000 commercial buildings, and
the Presidential Palace and the National Assembly building were also destroyed/severely damaged.

My desire is that the Boy Scouts of America
make a footprint on the world,
and help serve the Boy Scouts of Haiti to rebuild their country.
Because He Knows The Plans He Has For ME Jeremiah 29:11
• For surely I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans for your welfare and not for harm, to give you a future with hope.
• JEREMIAH's HOPE PRAYER: 'Deep within my soul I cry out to You Father.' I don't really know what I need from You right now but I am sensing something, so I'll wait for Your direction. Lord my list of wants is long but You already know all about that. I want to sit in Your Presence for just a few minutes, Lord. So I thank You for Your peace now.
Mr. Reed told me my vision was possible!
Mr. Kim Reed, President of “Builders
without Borders.”
We have an effective plan, please
join our efforts and
band together to help our
brothers and sisters in need.
Mr. Behounek has provided me with the opportunity to
serve and lead. Thank you!
Me with my
Scout Master,
Michael Behounek.
As each has received
a gift, employ it
in serving one another
as good managers of
the grace of God in
its various forms.
(1 Peter 4:10)
I made a commitment
to help the Haitians.
Mr. Bill Folts, Chairman of the
District Advancement for Eagle Scout
Projects, and me.
We have an effective plan, please
join our efforts and
band together to help our
brothers and sisters in need.
“This is an ambitious goal, but reachable,”
William Morriss
My dad, Mr. William Morriss, friend and Distinguished Eagle
Scout, and me.
With this in mind, I have continued to
work toward the goal
of providing homes for Haitians in need. I ask you to join me
in this effort.
LOCAL DISTRICT CONVERT 10 CONTAINERS INTO 20 HOUSES
= HOUSING FOR 240 PEOPLE
“On Eagle’s Wings USA” has 4 Main Elements:
1. Troops can build a container together.
2. Fundraising: $3,000 (60 scouts @ $50.00 each).
3. Materials acquisition: Container, construction supplies, wood, nails, paint.
4. Trucking: Picking up the container from a location in Texas and bringing it to the build-out site in Alvin, TX. Then, delivering the built-out container to the Port of Houston. The Ocean freight will carry it to the foreign Port and local delivery.
a. Container delivery will be arranged by “On Eagle’s Wings USA” organization.
b. Troops building out the container need to have their
Scoutmaster and a SPL represent them.

5. Build-out: Labor: Scout labor and Volunteers. Requires 200 man-hours: 1 day= 8 hours a day
LOCATION OF CURRENT 10 CONTAINERS,
At Consolidated Warehousing LLC, ALVIN TEXAS
ONE 8' X 40’ CONTAINER WILL SLEEP 24 PEOPLE
Method of Preparation
1. Scrape all the rust found on the outside of the container off
2. Sweep all dirt and dust out from the inside of the container
3. Paint the top of the container white and the outside blue
4. Paint the inside of the container white
5. Build beds, table, and shelves
1. Construct a prefabricated wall in the middle of the container to divide it into two houses,
2. Build two level bunk-beds with access steps, cabinets for clothes & other property, install a regular pre-hung door & sliding window with screen at each end of the “Container Home” so each family will have independent access to their own home.
INSIDE THE CONTAINER BEDDING, PILLOWS, FOOD, AND SUPPLIES WILL BE PROVIDED
1. Divided into 2 houses for 2 separate families, sleeps 24 people. Both ends will have an entrance.
2. Construction of an internal dividing wall, 2 sets of bunk beds, a table, framed window and entry door, and painting inside and out.
The Next Step
My goal has been to provide a
prototype and a blueprint,
so Scouts
and
other organizations will adopt and commit
to the project
converting one container
into a home for 24 Haitians.
Our work will not be in vain.
“On Eagles Wings USA” has a Commitment to Build and They will Ship.

Orphan Grain Train www.ogt.org
Our Mission: In loving response to Christ, the Servant, the Orphan Grain Train movement encourages and enables God’s people to share personal and material resources in bringing Christ’s name and character to needy people both far and near. Sometimes that character expresses itself as a word well- spoken, sometimes as a bandage well-applied, and sometimes as a child well-fed.
IMMEDIATE NEED FOR CONTAINERS
CONTAINERS USED FOR:
A. LIVING QUARTERS: Three Year Residency 1. One site for a doctor 2. One site for a nurse 3. One site for a project manager 4. One site for a business manager

The Footprint Across America
I want to Inspire, Motivate, Demonstrate,
and Encourage
Boy Scouts Across America to Choose
“On Eagles Wings USA”
as Their Eagle Scout Project,
so We as a UNITED TROOP Can
Build ONE HUNDRED HOMES for Haitians,
during the Boy Scout Centennial Year.
There’s No Need for people to continue camping in tents, when THEY CAN HAVE CONTAINERS TO PROVIDE
A SAFER ENVIRONMENT
He needs a home because he needs protection. There are one million just like him.
