Because He First Loved Us

Back in October, we first told you about our Christmas for our Community - Doko project. This evening, our staff and children who participated returned safely to Port au Prince.
There will always be a reason why you meet people. Either you need them to change your life or you're the one who helps to change theirs. And everywhere you go you will learn something different. For me going to Doko helped me see a lot of things in a different way. It was so good to see so much joy in people face and how they welcomed us. They were so thankful.
Polo Charles, Director of Economic Development for Haiti Awake
Thank you to all who participated this year, and we look forward to more opportunities to show love in action in the future.
Thanks to everyone who helped to make this happen. Thanks for speaking life this way to fill people's hearts with joy.

I was happy to know Doko and people in Doko. I was glad also to spend some of my time there for Christmas this year.
Dieussait Dera, House Supervisor for Haiti Awake
Doko is one of the greatest place in Haiti, and people there are awesome . After receiving their Christmas gifts yesterday for the first time in their community, they were so happy.
Steeve Derard, Ground Director
People were so happy to receive their Christmas gifts. They didn't expect that, but God who knows everything sent our team on time to share hope, love, joy to people in that community which I am from and where my parents are living. They are very grateful for that and so are we!
Makendy Lindor, Staff at Haiti Awake
We love because He first loved us.
