Dear Prayer Warriors and Supporters, Jwaye Nwèl or Merry Christmas in creole. We celebrated Christmas in the 2 communities that we work in. We had such amazing moment with the kids. It was obvious that they enjoyed it and had a lot of fun. We even had some dancing. The YES! employees also helped with the Christmas parties by donating some of their own financial to fix the kids a bigger meal for the Christmas Parties. The most amazing thing was the smile on the kids’ faces. D

The reason for writing this letter is due to my need to share my passion for helping others and the huge impact YES! is having in Haiti. In the year of 2010 I was active duty Military and we were getting ready to deploy to Haiti to help with humanitarian aid. This was the first time for me that Haiti really became visible on my radar. I knew it existed but it was not a visible thought in my head. At the last minute of preparation plans were changed and we ended up not going.
