HELP's Country Director confirmed safe

Dear Friends

I recently received an eyewitness account from my friend Pooja Bhatia in Port-au-Prince. HELP Country Director Garry Delice is safe. Three other staff members appear to be safe but four have been injured to various degrees although we don't know how serious the most serious case is.

No reports of any deaths among staff and students yet. Most if not all of the approximately 60 students in HELP housing are accounted for. We are praying that we can keep this winning streak going.

Unfortunately the HELP center is destroyed; however this loss is truly insignificant in the midst of the human suffering.

Phone lines to Haiti are next to impossible. Internet service is spotty. You can follow Pooja's eyewitness accounts at: https://twitter.com/bhatiap

Thank you again for your thoughts and prayers. We need them all. We will also need donations to rebuild the lives of our staff and students and our infrastructure.
