The partners in Haiti-CPR invite faith groups and NGOs in the US and Canada to encourage and support their counterparts and twinned communities in Haiti to consider the following actions.
ACTION: Encourage Signup for Covid-19 SMS/WhatsApp Covid-19 Alerts
COST: $0
HOW: Encourage your Haitian counterpart to have members submit their names and cell numbers to receive regular Covid-19 updates by going to this link.
ACTION: Distribute Battle Against Coronavirus Brochure
COST: $0 (other than collecting printed brochures from nearest Haiti Santé location)
HOW: In the Free Resources section you will see a link to order free printed copies of the Creole version of this brochure, noting that there is also the option to pay for the brochures if that is possible.
ACTION: Disseminate Covid-19 Social Media Images
COST: $0
HOW: Encourage your Haitian counterpart to consider sending out the Social Media Images from the Free Resources section (free for download in Creole), realizing not everyone in rural Haiti has a smartphone with image capability.
ACTION: Distribute Covid-19 Coloring Pages to Children
COST: $0 (other than collecting printed coloring pages from nearest Haiti Santé location)
HOW: Encourage your Haitian counterpart to either download these coloring pages (in Creole) from the Free Resources section or order online by visiting this link. There is no charge for the coloring pages, but there will be an option to contribute something when ordering the pages.
ACTION: Covid-19 Distance Training
COST: Once we have implemented the first 15 pilot distance trainings, we will know what costs might be involved
HOW: Either you or Haitian counterpart are requested to send an email to scarlson@raisinghaiti.org if you are interested in being put on a waiting list to be contacted once we determine our capacity for additional trainings and related costs. This determination will be made after we have completed the first 15 pilot Covid-19 distance trainings.
