Help Evacuate Kenson's Orphanage

Kenson's orphanage was reached by the Salvation Army yesterday and now has a 1/2 day supply of food and water. A family with children there is being interviewed tonight on CBS, I think the national news.

The president of FHG, an American agency that partners with the orphanage is reporting that there is a plan in place for evacuating it but they need the US state department to agree. Please consider sharing the following information with your senators, Hillary Clinton, and the White House. If you scroll down a bit through past posts, there is contact information for most of those people.

Maison des Enfants de Dieu houses 138 orphans at Delmas 31 #32 in Port Au Prince. This week's earthquake have left these children with substandard housing and a lack of access to food and water. They received food and water yesterday but this was only after an urgent cry for help went out and people connected to the orphanage began desperately seeking help from any sources they knew of. They were only given a 1/2 day supply; obviously this will quickly run out. They are also concerned with their safety as the exterior walls to the compound have collapsed and looting is an issue in all of the city. They have sick children and many babies who have been drinking regular milk rather than formula for lack of a better alternative. Please advocate for the children of this orphanage to be evacuated to the US as there are not places in Haiti that can adequately take in this many people at once. Many of these children have been matched with adoptive parents who are willing to care for them and complete their adoptions stateside. There is paperwork to establish who these children are; they are not newly orphaned children with no identification. These children need to be evacuated from Haiti as staying in Haiti at best means life in a tent city and at worst means starvation or death from illness.
