HORP helps establish internet access at remote orphanage.

Thanks to our volunteers and supporters, this remote orphanage now has internet access.  ”This is a big step for us” says Pascal Bain, orphanage director at Melissa’s Hope Orphanage for Children with Disabilities in Bon Repos.  ”Now we can stay connected with the rest of the world, get updates for medical treatment, communicate with our supporters and friends…we can not thank you enough.”    Pascal and his wife Charlotte will also be helping the older children establish pen-pal relationships with students outside of Haiti.  ”This is a great day for all of us” says Charlotte.  The dish was installed with the help of HORP volunteers and the money for the satellite dish and the annual service fee both came from anonymous donors.  The laptop was donated by the Middlebelt Dermatology Center in Farmington Hills, Michigan.  A family in Wisconsin donated a used digital camera which will be presented to Pascal on the next trip to Haiti April 19th.  To contact the orphanage directly you can e-mail the Director  Jean Pascal Bain  mr.bainabc@yahoo.com or look for him on facebook!
