Cholera Update

Conleigh's orphanage is officially isolated inside their compound.  They've staffed themselves and are prepared to be inside for a month or so if need be.  In general, health education is non existant in Haiti.  People do not understand how hygiene and drinking water can be connected to disease nor do they understand how to prevent disease.  There are many isolated areas that are not accessible by vehicles.  Real Hope for Haiti is setting out to reach these isolated areas and work on educating these villages on how to prevent cholera.  (This is not a government sponsored program.  The government in Haiti does not work in the same way ours does, going out and making sure everyone knows.)  Please click on the link to read their plan and consider making a donation to help offset the costs of such a venture.
