Thank you to Keith and Joan – two of HATS-Haiti’s faithful volunteers

Thank you to Keith and Joan – two of HATS-Haiti’s faithful volunteers

Things at the mission work and flow so much better when they arrive for a few months compared to me trying to do it by myself. I am very happy when they come and extremely thankful for what is accomplished when they are there. 

These photos will give you an idea of the varied things they do while at the HATS-Haiti Mission.  When they return home to Montreal they are missed by everybody at the mission, children and employees.

Thank you Keith and Joan from all of us at the HATS Mission, for who you are and for what you do. May God continue to bless you both, your children, and your grandchildren. We await your return!!!

Karen

    Thank you indeed, Joan and Keif, for all you do for HATS. Along with all the work you do, time invested in the children, supplies you bring and fun you provide you bring laughter and fun for the heavy day to day stuff in the office. You make every day better for everyone!
