Thanks for tent donations to help Haiti! PDF Print E-mail

Thank you to everyone who donated tents for Haiti. The tents are on their way now. In case you missed this great effort, the ERC joined with the American Alpine Club’s efforts to collect tents and shelter for Haitians left homeless by January’s earthquakes. The AAC identified the greatest immediate need as shelter and was requesting tent donations.

Imagine being in the midst of chaos in the aftermath of multiple devastating earthquakes.......

The basic elements needed to survive are food, water, and shelter, and none may be available. There is no privacy, no protection from the elements, no place to call your own. Will you be sleeping on the same patch of dirt tomorrow? Will your only blanket  be taken by from you?

The Wood River Valley is resourceful and dynamic. You really stepped up to the plate! The ERC collected and shipped two large appliance boxes full of tents, around 400 pounds worth.  These will help many families in need in Haiti.

Thank you, Wood River Valley, for your generosity!
