Clean water is in desperate need for many thousands of people in Haiti.
PINP is currently fund raising for a water purifier; which will provide approximately 50 families with clean water, free for the PINP partners and at a very cheap price for other local families. Any profits made from selling the water will go toward funding another water purifier for another area.
The project is designed to be as cheap and fair as possible. It will make a huge difference in the lives of our partners. 50 families will spend less time on just survival activities and more time with families, running businesses or hopefully going to school.
The total cost for a water purifying system is $2300 US; $1500 has already been donated and so we are raising funds for another $800.00. We don

Dear abroad partners of PINP,

My name is Lynda Franks (Australia). I am one of the abroad partners that has a Haitian partner (Michelene Charles) located in Citron.

It has come to my attention that my partner has to walk a 2 mile (3.2km) round trip to access clean water. In an environment of poor sanitation and living with the threat of cholera and other water borne diseases, I believe it is unacceptable for children to be forced to carry gallons of water every day just to survive.

In partnership with Cajuste (PINP), a committee from Citron and we have created a proposal for a concrete water sanitation tank to be built in Citron for the Haitian partners and local families.

I have forwarded $1500US to PINP to get the project started. We are aiming to have the complete funding for the project of $2300US by the end of October. We need to raise an extra $800 US


The proposal.

Capital costs

30 bags of cement=$240us
10 iron 1/2 =$150us
5 iron 3/8 =$30
3 big truck of sand=$300us
100 pipes for carry the running water to the cistern =$500us
Filter for purifying the water $150us
50 Pieces cub = $50us
Supplies for joint the materials=$100us
25% administration and project management which is=$380us
Labors = $400us
Grand Total $2,300us

Specification

The water will be managed by the Citron committee with guidance from PINP on a needs basis. The tank will take 250 gallons of water.
50 families will benefit from the water.
There are about 15 partners living in the area therefore 15 of the partner families will gain free access to 5 gallons water a day.
30 families will pay a little fee of 5 gourdes and benefits 5 gallons of water per day.
The income will be $3.75us per day.
The running water will cost 1USD per day, $30USD per month.
The remaining of $82.50us will be used to repair the system when it has to be repairing, pay a little management fee to the committee, and save the rest of money for building another water system in another area etc...

The project is designed to be as cheap and fair as possible. It will make a huge difference in the lives of our partners. 50 families will spend less time on just survival activities and more time with families, running businesses or hopefully going to school. The project will be clearly identified as a PINP project . I think we should have our first name and country written on the tank too.

I would be incredibly grateful for your support in this project which would only be multiplied by the gratitude of our Haitian partners. Cajuste will let us know when we have reached the funding target and inform us of the projects progress.

regards


Lynda Franks

Dear PINP members, and staff,

For each transfer President Martelly Michel ask $1.50us for covering the expenses to send more children to school, so for anyone who wants to send money to Haiti, if you add the fee to the normal amount that's will be better.

Dear PINP Members,

Thank you so much for all support that you provide to our Haiti Children to go to school last year even if there was a lot trouble for PINP to cover all the rest expenses for the school fee for the children, that's why we decided to switch the School as optional program that's mean that any partner can pay school for the Haiti partner if it is possible. But we would like to know which partner who wants to continue paying school for their Haiti Partners, and who is not going to pay. All of you already know that school is important for the children, but we had to switch it like this because we don't have other chance. We have a few partners who already sent $155us to pay school for their partners for this year, that's mean we realize that most of you want to continue paying their school.

Please if you want to cover the expenses for your partner's school for this year let us know, and all the contribution has to be sent to us this month because we have to prepare for the children school before September. And also we have to confirm which child who is going to school this year and which child who is not going, because we have to explain to their parents the reason why we can not afford to pay school for them this year.

Sincerely,
Cajuste

Dear PINP members,

I would like remind you that my birthday is tomorrow (July 5th) and I will be 35 years old. Please help me to celebrate my birthday for the first time, because I never have chance to celebrate before. As you already know that people who live in extreme poverty can not celebrated their birthday because the basic need takes place each time to have fun.

Sincerely,
Cajuste

Dear Members of PINP,

I would like to inform you that we had three houses from Maxima to be installed in Cite Soleil for three families by the support of Caroline, Cathy, and Anja Van eonen. after buying two pieces of lands, one is in Soleil 16 and the other is in La plane. we have been installed two of houses, one is for Roseline Desir and the other for Naphtalie Jean. the two families are living now in their houses. but the other house is for Marlene Chery, we already bought sand, bricks pay builders for installing the house for her, during we let her supervised the work she sold the house to other family and she decides to not let us know if she sold the house. So we are concerning about the house because it was our false when we gave her opportunity to supervised the work and the house is on her name. I think now for any project that we will be doing for the people who live in extreme poverty we should put the name of our organization in it. that's the second times that happened to us, last two years ago we bought a house in Cite Fequiere for for Rose Carline by the support of Treva Sylverman, her mother sold the house and put Rose lives under tent outside. Now we are be careful with our projects.

Sincerely,
Cajuste

PINP Members and staff,

I already had one week working here in Netherlands talking to people about the new PINP system, and trying to create relationships between adoptive children and biological parents in Haiti. I already met a couple of families here and they really want to get in touch with their families in Haiti.
