Hey there!
Just wanted to give you an update on what's happening at Poured Out with our amazing Haitian staff. On our last trip to Haiti in April 2023 we took down more supplies for our staff to complete another Water House all on their own! This one is being installed at a new clinic that Chelo built! Chelo saw a need in this mountain community for basic healthcare and saved up money from working at Poured Out and selling land to build the clinic. He then asked Poured Out to help him get clean water to the area! The Water House is quite the challenge since the water source is over 300 feet from the clinic itself but the team successfully built it all on the training they learned over the last few years!
We have also recently enlisted them in the hard work of finding equipment to install our systems that is easily located in Haiti. We are having increasing challenges with being able to take equipment from the US to Haiti and so we left lists with different parts for them to find ways to install Water Houses completely without the aid of supplies from the US as well. This is a huge undertaking, but one that we fully trust the team is capable of because of their training, competence, and passion for the work. In the midst of many struggles, they continue to serve in amazing ways.
We will keep you updated with all that our staff is up to in the coming months. Thank you for your support of our staff! They really make us work!
