MARCH 9, 2013 Raising Money for Haiti Orphanages
Also this Saturday March 9, 2013 we are working with Paige Pfenniger a student from Quaker Valley on raising money for two Orphanges in Haiti, EBAC and IDADEE. This cause is near and dear to my heart. I went with my church growing up to Haiti and it changed my life. We went over spring break my senior year in high school to help spend time with the orphans to teach them about GOD and to just simply play with them. But it was on this trip that I learned a valuable lesson, these beautiful children were teaching us more than we were teaching them. From the second we arrived they showed us unconditional love and wanted to be instant friends and when it was time to leave they cried and we cried. The bond that they were so openly ready to make was inspiring. A bond full of trust and judgement free.
These kids are incredible and so many of the orphans have grown up with personal relationships with many people in Pittsburgh that keep going back year after year to continue those solid friendships that were formed on that first trip.
To read more about amazing things being done in Haiti you can visit
The Pittsburgh Kids Foundation . They do a ton of incredible work in Haiti. They are constantly taking adults, kids, and local athletes down to Haiti to help build new orphanages as well as help Haitians start their own recycling businesses.
With that being said stop by Rosewood Sewickley this Saturday and give a donation to Paige she will be at the store from 12-3 or purchase something from Rosewood and we will give 10% of sales to The Haiti Orphanages.
A big thanks to
Rachel Rowland Photography for letting me use her photos to show you the moments she captured on her trip to Haiti. If you aren't familiar with her she does weddings, couples, families and baby bump. Stop by her

Hope to see you at these events this week!
