The wind

We leave July 3 to travel to Haiti. I am not with an organization. I'm a woman ... trying to make a difference one life at a time. Sometimes I feel I have lived for my moments with Haitian children: children crying and begging in desperation, on the street. I did,nt know that leaving ones mark on the world unfolds so easily. It is a gift to see how your skills and compassion for others can have such value in a fourth world country. It feels like a strong wind that passes quickly and lasts for ... moments cut into time ... moments that matter. I can make a difference in lives when I stop and feel that wind.

Ellen ... and handlers

I am Canadian! I realize that you are "busy". I am too! So here is the deal....I have great made in Canada Lespwa shirts for your audience! If you would like to support this excellent cause...and add to the amount I am hand delivering Haiti...please contact me. I leave July 3 from Toronto Ontario. I AM making a difference but I need your help. I know many people of this world have causes. I am a woman of faith, HOPE and passion extending a Canadian 'eh' to you and hope that you will contact me. I am not a stalker! ;) I'm a Canadian Special Education teacher ... with heart and HOPE for children.

It's a new month and a new sales amount...drum roll!

Sales in shirts have hit $14,000.00! Our teaching team goes to Haiti in July, including a new teacher coming along this summer for her first Haiti experience. I am not sure what to expect once there. It does sound grim for those who are trying to live normal lives there. I am sure things will not feel the same. We want to provide the teaching staff of Three Angels with as much support as possible. We want to build them up in character, dignity and spirit! If you have any items to donate please contact me! I would love to sell more shirts before we leave! I am now selling shirts in the USA. Tell your friends about the T shirt drive. The shirts are selling themselves! I have high hopes and even higher Lespwas! :)

Over  $8,000.00 of shirts have been sold in the HELP HOPE HEAL T shirt drive...Amazing but just getting started! Catch the LESPWA "tap tap" and come along for the ride. I will be taking all funds this July! GO CANADA GO! Keep caring, keep knowing that YOU make a difference! IT costs $27.00 to send a child to school. Medicine and food is expensive in Haiti. Let's show the world that WE LESPWA!

Over $6,000.00 and groooooowing!

If you have ever had a thought...that turned to an idea.....that became reality...well then, that is what HELP HEAL HOPE has become! It was a simple creative idea that ignited a spark that grew into a flame that is now burning strong!  Sometimes when we aspire to take action it creates a wave of life! A unique but common action that we all do...think! I simply knew that I must act and do something to help.  If we could change the world with one action of HOPE and love could it become more? Stop and think...if you had a thought that could become an action that could  make a difference to someone would you pursue it? Would you step out of your comfortable world to enter into a drive toward a goal? If just one famous person would stop to take the time to read this and know that LESPWA means hope...then maybe it could start a spark of action.
