Clean Water for Haiti

Through my church, Christ & St. Luke's Episcopal in Norfolk, I have begun raising money to dig a well in Haiti, a beautiful but tragic place where more than half of its 10 million people don't have access to clean water. The group I belong to, Caring for Creation, is working with Haitioutreach.org, one of the most respected organizations working within that country. By the end of this year, we hope to raise $15,000 -- the cost of planning, drilling and maintaining a well on the Haiti mainland. So far, we're more than a third of the way there!

You can help by sending a check to Christ & St. Luke's and designating Haiti Clean Water. Please send to:

Many thanks.

Halfway There!


We at Christ & St. Luke’s have reached the halfway mark in raising the funds to plan, dig and maintain a water well for a needy community in Haiti! With the help of C&SL’s youth groups, a plant and herb sale, special gifts and generous contributions, Caring for Creation has raised more than $7,500 of the $15,000 needed.
Working with the much-respected group Haiti Outreach, we will be providing life-giving clean water to countless children and their families who  suffer the effects of contaminated water sources. Stop by our table at Coffee Hour this Sunday and see how you can help put us over the top!
