HEART 9/11 Returns To Haiti
H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 has returned to Port au Prince, Haiti on Monday, April 05, 2010 to begin work on a project that will see four 1,500 gallon water storage tanks built to replace a destroyed 6,000 gallon tank at the Jesuit Novitiate there. H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 members from the New York area and H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 members from the Florida International Association of Bridge, Structural, Ornamental & Reinforcing Ironworkers Union Local 272 are joining forces with fifteen Jesuit novitiates to get the project completed. These students, who range in age from 18 to 35, will be trained in the construction skills necessary to do such a job. This quid pro quo arrangement will prepare these young Haitian men to take these skills and continue the rebuilding for their local communities. Thanks to the sponsorship of Jefferies & Co, H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 is keeping its promise to continue bringing help to the Haitian people. There are several other projects being looked at in and around Port au Prince. There is much to do and, be assured, we will stay focused on our mission. We have received many positive responses from our membership letting us know that we have their ongoing support.
We will be in touch with our H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 team in Haiti and report on their progress.
