Originally I am from Haiti, my family and friends lives in the Jeremie and Cayes regions. They have lost everything but the clothes on their backs. Most of them were able to reach high ground by heading to the mountains on foot. I will collect funds to help them rebuild their lives in the regions. Funds and supplies are needed immediately for basic necessities, like food drinking water, shelter and medicine. This  means a lot to me because first its my Homeland and second its also my family and friends that are in need. I will be extremely thankful if I can get them the help; I am a US Army veteran that proudly and honorably served this country; and now I am reaching back to the people and country that I served and asking for a little help with my Homeland.
