NEED YOUR HELP NOW!!
LINKEDIN WILL MATCH 3x THE AMOUNT OF ANY FUNDS DONATED TO THIS CAMPAIGN BY THE EOD TOMORROW, 12/2/16. #GivingTuesday
5 days ago, one of my new LinkedIn Learning Instructors, Irene Radcliffe, shared a post on Instagram that tugged at my heart and initiated an inner drive in me to help out the Haitian refugees living in the Dominican Republic.
A State of Emergency was declared 3 weeks ago in Montellano, a small town in the Puerto Plata province of the Dominican Republic ,inhabited by Haitian refugees. Due to 3 months of rain and unprecedented flooding, numerous Haitians have been displaced and without food and water - A BASIC NECESSITY IN LIFE!
Santo Domingo.- Four straight weeks of rains have killed at least 15 people, damaged agriculture and infrastructure for around US$5.0 billion and cut off dozens of villages across the Dominican Republic, according to official reports.
Two swelled rivers in northern Puerto Plata province caused five deaths and flooded houses Sunday night, while relief officials report that 19,076 people have been evacuated.
Three of the five victims were members of the same family who were swept away by the rushing waters inside their home in the community La Jaiba of Villa Isabela, in Puerto Plata province.
