What the UUSC is doing for Haiti

Learn more about the UUSC's Integrated Approach to helping Haiti in this article and video from the UUSC website. UUSC is one of the two organizations we are supporting this year.


After the devastating 7.0 earthquake in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, UUSC responded with its unique integrated approach of grassroots eye-to-eye partnerships, constituent advocacy, and public policy work. This short film demonstrates how UUSC supports people affected by humanitarian crises who are overlooked by traditional relief efforts. They are rebuilding their lives as heroes of their own story, contrary to the mass-media viewpoint of Haitians as helpless victims. UUSC's unique eye-to-eye partnership model understands that in an unequal society like Haiti, survivors don't just need food, they need justice. 


Won't you please donate, or send your family and friends to this blog so they can chip in too? It would mean so much to our Spirited Worship kids, and to Haiti!

Blessings...
