GENEVA,
SWITZERLAND — Slowly the food is moving, the clean water is running. Haitians
have shelter. ACT photographer Paul Jeffrey has seen them in Jacmel, a town on
Haiti's southern coast.
A tent clinic in the middle of the street, Haitian women
cooking food for hundreds of homeless, boys helping to carry food for those
living in the tented camp. Haitians themselves take part in the humanitarian
work. The neighbourhood is an important side of the Haitian society, and ACT
Alliance works hand-in-hand with the homeless.
The local relief workers were also hit by the earthquake. One
ACT field worker says: "I am not afraid any more. I have survived the worst
disaster in the history of Haiti and I am alive. I can survive anything now."

PWRDF Moves Forward with Hope: A message from the Executive
Director January 29, 2010
|
Our Diocesan PWRDF Coordinator :
On 27 January 2009, Bishop Miller announced the appointment of
Anne Walling of Bloomfield,
Parish of Central Kings, to the position of Diocesan PWRDF coordinator.
The role of the coordinator is to be a liaison between the PWRDF National office and the bishop, clergy, and people of the Diocese of Fredericton, and to assist the parish representatives.
The parish representatives in over 900 parishes across Canada are the backbone of PWRDF partnership. "The parish reps need to understand the importance of their role and how crucial their input is to the overall working of PWRDF." The clergy also play a part in encouraging the work of PWRDF, as the parishioners look to them for direction.

PWRDF works in close cooperation with the Canadian International Development Agency, or
CIDA.
