Haiti Relief Tent Drive

CCF, February 27th 8 am - 12 pm

The earthquake in Haiti has left the country in an unimaginable situation with over 1,000,000 people living in tent cities with inadequate shelter as the rainy season is rapidly approaching. The people's most urgent need now is for shelter. Our church is participating in an area Tent Drive. We will be a collection site for donated new and gently used tents.

You can help in THREE ways:

1. Donate a new or gently used tent. The tent should be nylon (no heavy canvas) and fit 2-6 people. Please set up the tent to inspect it before bringing it. Be sure that all parts necessary for assembly are with the tent. Please include $10 per tent to cover shipping and distribution costs to Haiti.

2. Volunteer to help with the Tent Drive. If you can volunteer on the 27th, contact Ernie Giordano at (401) 433-3156 or giolibertas@cox.net.

3. Spread the word. Please promote this drive in your school, place of business or neighborhood. Email your friends, post to Facebook, make phone calls. Let's mobilize our community to help!
