Tents for Haiti Drop-Off this Sunday, March 14, between 9:30 AM-12:00 PM


This Sunday, between 9:30 AM & 12:00 PM, AYES Corps (Adventist Youth Emergency Services Corps) will be present to receive the tents that you, your church, club, small group, and AY have collected at the following locations:

Grand Concourse Adventist Church (Bronx) @ 1275 Grand Concourse Bronx NY 10452-7805

Adventist Community Service Headquarters (Queens) @ 41-26 58th Street Woodside, NY 11377

Greater New York Conference Office (Long Island) @ 7 Shelter Rock Rd., Manhasset, NY 11030

French Gethsemane Adventist Church (Brooklyn) @ 357 Empire Blvd. Brooklyn NY 11225-3203

Camp Berkshire (Upstate New York) @ 680 Berkshire Road. Wingdale, NY 12594

This initiative is not only for the Adventurer and Pathfinder Clubs; it is also for Teens, Young Adults, and for each Church Member in our Conference. Our people in Haiti need a place to live, a Shelter, they NEED TENTS. Over 5,000 Adventist Families, a total of over 20,000 Adventist Members are homeless in Port-Au-Prince right now.

Please, make a special plea in your church for the next few days and ask each member and family, who is able to donate a tent to do so (preferably a 6-10 person tent in good shape and complete with all its stakes & parts). Each tent donated will be shipped to Haiti and it will become the HOUSE of a FAMILY in Port-Au-Prince and its surroundings. ONE TENT equals a HOUSE for a FAMILY in HAITI.

CHILDREN’S CLOTHING

Our Team in Haiti has urgently requested Children’s Clothing (Sizes 0-10 yrs old), as we try to help a group of orphans at the different Adventists Shelters in Port-Au-Prince. The clothes must be new or in a very good condition (summer clothing, no winter clothing please). You can drop off the Children’s Clothing together with the tents.
