8/9/2019 Summary of Reiser Relief Inc. in Haiti
1/1
Reiser Relief Inc. is a volunteer run non-
profit 501(c)(3) corporation founded byFather Bernard Reiser,
who has been
involved with Haiti outreach programs forover 13 years. Reiser
Relief is based in
Coon Rapids, MN and its mission is to help
the impoverished people of the Caribbean country of Haiti, the
poorest country in the Western Hemisphere.The social and
environmental problems are the greatest challenges the people of
Haiti are facing today.
In the midst of these problems, we are compelled to provide the
essential services to aid in day-to-day survival.The services we
provide include: fresh water delivery, food centers, and housing,
primary grade education and
eldercare facilities. Many projects are in or near Cite Soleil;
the suburb of the Haitian capital of Port au Prince.
One of our original programs that we sponsored was the Village
of Jesus, located in the
mountain area of Leogonne. There we built a center caring for
abandoned women whohave no place to live. It currently has
dormitories, laundry facilities, kitchen, dining
area and bathrooms to accommodate these women.
Reiser Relief supports two primary schools namely Terre Promise
& Reiser Heights
Primary. Both schools made it through the earthquake though
Terre Promise will needextensive repairs and Reiser Relief and
three other non-profit organizations areproceeding forward to
reconstruct. With your support, our school programs provide hope
that comes with an
education for a better future. Children receive a daily meal at
school and for many, this is their only meal for
the day. We engage in building and supporting school classrooms
and sanitary blocks for sewage. Yourdonations provide for so much;
salaries for teachers, text books, food, uniforms and hope.
The number one cause for illnesses is the lack of clean water
and our water deliver program brings life-saving
water daily to those in need. Fresh water is obtained from deep
wells and trucked to the areas of need. The
water truck operates six days a week making four deliveries too
many neighborhoods in Cite Soleil andreaching numerous impoverished
families where the local people carry the water home in
5 gallon buckets. With your help, we can affect thousands of
lives for they cannot affordto purchase the water on their own.
After the earthquake the water truck is delivering totent cities,
clinics and orphanages; for without the water we supply to these
impoverished
people they cannot survive.
In March 2010 a plea for help to Reiser Relief came from Father
Zucchi, the director of the Little Schools in
Port-au-Prince. Our first priority is providing food, water and
shelter. The school provides educationalprograms for over 10,000
children from pre-school to young adults. They focused on literacy
and vocational
training to sustain their future. Many of the children, parents
and staff are sleeping outside, in the streets or in
big courtyards. Most of the children and parents have no tent or
food. The water towers (holding 10,000gallons) have been destroyed.
The food storage for school is gone.
The people of Haiti await your generous response and pray for
God's abundant blessings upon you. We arecommitted to providing
essential services to aid in day-to-day survival of thousands. We
live among abundance,
the Haitians in extreme poverty.
Help me to help them.
Love and Prayers,Father Reiser
