Food for Orphanages & Books for School

As part of Roberta’s work in Haiti, she coordinates the purchase and delivery of food each month to three different orphanages. There are 80 children at the Kardeh orphanage, 60 children at the Lilivois orphanage, and 35 children at Fara’s orphanage who receive meals because of this work. Funds are given by the Beltline Church of Christ in Decatur, Alabama, to provide the food for these deliveries.

The feeding of these children is in addition to the feeding that Roberta oversees for children at the Nutrition Center. This year the number of children being fed the Nutrition Center at Roberta’s home has risen to 180!

Many of the children who attend the Nutrition Center also have the opportunity to have their tuition, uniform, and book fees paid so that they can attend school. The funds for this Education Program are collected and managed by the Estes Church. Pictured below are the books that have been purchased for the children this year. The children from the Sonlight Children’s Home and the Nutrition Center help to sort all the books and put them into individual book bags. Each child will then get a book bag ready to go for school!

There is a lot of great work going on in Haiti. Please remember Roberta and all these children in your prayers. If you’d like to get involved with any of these projects or become a sponsor, please email haitimissions@esteschurch.com and we will be glad to answer any questions!
