Building Fence at the Housing Project

We are continuing work at the Earthquake Housing Project in Leroux (Croix-des-Bouquet). In Haiti, it is very important to put up a fence around your property. Most times people put the fence up before building. The fence keeps goats and sheep out of your yard, along with unwanted trouble makers. It is also important, so that some wheeler-dealer does not come and sell some of your yard to someone else.

We give a big thank you to the Florida HBA, for sponsoring this part of the project. We also thank the work team from New York who worked hard.



It is going to be a 6' high chain link fence with barb wire around the top.  



Many of the people that received the houses pitched in to help with the fence.



Riding to the job site with tools and supplies. The little guys are Josiah and Nic who went along to help for a day.


One day after quitting, we drove up the mountain a little so the team could get a view of the valley from the mountain. Here they took a group photo.
