"St Antoine School Fondwa, Haiti"

The classroom building built by Dave Williamson and volunteers is still standing after Hurricane Tomas' winds came through the community of Fondwa last week. The building has eight classrooms (Preschool 1 through 5Th grade are housed in this building). The temporary secondary class rooms were destroyed by the strong winds (see middle photo). However, they have managed to use part of that structure to have classes in for now. They have also set up tents to use for classrooms. Even with the set back the school is up and running. When I arrived yesterday classes were in session and lunch was being served to the students. A "little wind" isn't going to stop the children of Fondwa from learning. Please consider sponsoring a child or a teacher through Family Health Ministries (http://www.familyhm.org/) to ensure the children of Fondwa have the opportunity to attend school and the chance to change their lives and the lives of their families. Peace, Love and Joy. Missy
