News from Haiti: October 2007

Congress, Rotary Clubs, and Haitian Agency

Our Haitian coordinator, Dalebrun Esther was invited to speak about our Clean Water Campaign to a delegation including some members of U.S. Congress in the El Rancho hotel, Port-au-Prince, Haiti, where he talked about our current water project and the chlorinator technology.

He also visited the Rotary Club of Saint Mark who agreed to sponsor our project. In a meeting held between the members and Dalebrun, Dalebrun gave them a breakdown of the Campaign for Clean Water and talked about our installation sites. He emphasized the positive laboratory results measured by Doctor Alain Louis. The members gave Dalebrun their unanimous approval. They were all very impressed by Dalebrun's presentation and the quality of the work that International Action has been doing in Haiti.

With this unanimous approval, International Action can now apply for support by American Rotary Clubs. Furthermore, we were contacted by Alban Nouvellon, a representative of one of the water agencies in Haiti who had heard about our activities and wanted to study our chlorine tablets. We hope to forge a partnership.
