Hygiene Kits

Except for the woman holding the box of candles, each of the others represents one family displaced by the Port Au Prince earthquake and now living with relatives in the area called Moron. These people were identified when a new census was taken of the HHF villages after the earthquake.
With money from various sources, "hygiene kits" were put together and given, one to a family.
Now they have items that you and I take for granted. Tooth brushes, tooth paste, soap, shampoo, towels and washcloths, matches, laundry soap,a nighttime chamber pot, a bag to carry things from the market, a basin to wash clothes, etc.
We had planned on giving each a candle, but, to a person, they said that the candles should go to the church and be lit in thanksgiving and to ask God's blessings on those who had been so generous to them.
The woman holding the candles is the village health agent who helped identify the families.
That day alone, 300 families from villages in the area surrounding Moron, were helped.
The need is great!
