Support orphanages who provide food, shelter and an education to the millions of abandoned and orphaned children of Haiti

Soaring food prices have provoked violent protests, looting and rioting in the already-volatile country of Haiti. The majority of the population survives on less than $2 a day, and now cannot afford even a daily platter of rice, a staple of their diet. The poorest have resorted to eating mud cookies to stave off hunger pains – cakes made of dried yellow dirt, vegetable shortening and salt. The Grace Exchange provides food, shelter and education to those children it accept into its orphanage and provides jobs for nearly 200 locals. They have outreach programs and work to feed and assist the rest of the desperate community.
