<div><strong>Help Bring Water Back to the Canal in Côtes-de-Fer!</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>For over 15 years, the main irrigation canal in Côtes-de-Fer, Haiti has been dry, damaged by hurricanes, choked by debris, and left without maintenance for many years.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But not anymore, not by the people who live there.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On May 30, 2025, seven men from the local community came together and began cleaning the canal by hand, with nothing but shovels, machetes, and faith. What started with just seven men quickly grew into a powerful movement. Every Friday, more volunteers join them, determined to restore the flow of this life-giving water, even without access to needed equipment like wheelbarrows or heavy machineries.
</div>
<div>More recent videos of their incredible work will be shared in the coming days. Stay tuned and be inspired.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now, the team is ready to double their efforts and meet twice a week — but they lack the tools and meals needed to sustain it. That’s where you come in.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em> "Be a Drop of Hope"</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hope for a Village, Inc. has partnered with the clean-up team to support this community-led effort and created this campaign based on the average cost per workday (kombit) and the estimated number of kombits left to fully restore the canal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donation will help:
</div>
<div>•	Buy essential tools like gloves, boots, shovels, and wheelbarrows
</div>
<div>•	Provide food and water for volunteers for mid-morning and after long days of physical labor
</div>
<div>•	Remove heavy debris
</div>
<div>•	Provide a food kit for the volunteers to take home to their families time per week.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong><em>"When We Help Restore the Canal, We Help Restore Life"</em></strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This canal once irrigated farmlands, fed families, and brought life to the region. It can do so again — but only if we act together.
</div>
<div>No amount is too small. Every drop matters.
</div>
<div>Be part of this movement.
</div>
<div>Be a drop of hope in Côtes-de-Fer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please give today and help water flow once more. All donations are tax deductible.
</div>
<div><br />

<div>Organized by Hope for a Village, Inc., a 501(c)(3) nonprofit uplifting rural communities in Haiti through education, sustainable development, and compassion.

<div><strong>Ann ede dlo tounen nan kanal Côtes-de-Fer!</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sa fè plis pase 15 an depi kanal irigasyon prensipal la nan Côtes-de-Fer, Ayiti sechrès — li te kraze pa siklòn, bouche ak fatra, epi rete san antretyen pandan anpil ane.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Men sa ap chanje — pa moun ki ap viv ladan l yo.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Nan 30 me 2025, sèt gason nan kominote a mete tèt yo ansanm pou yo kòmanse netwaye kanal la ak men yo — sèlman ak pèl, manchèt, ak lafwa. Sa ki te kòmanse ak 7 moun vin tounen yon mouvman fò. Chak vandredi, plis volontè vini mete men, detèmine pou retabli kou dlo sa a ki bay lavi — san menm gen aksè ak zouti esansyèl tankou brouèt oswa machin lou.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Nou pral pataje plis videyo resan sou travay ekstraòdinè sa a nan jou kap vini yo. Rete konekte epi kite sa enspire ou.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kounye a, ekip la pare pou double efò yo epi travay de fwa pa semèn — men yo pa gen ase zouti ni manje pou soutni mouvman an. Se la ou menm ou antre.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong> Vin Yon Gout Espwa</strong>
</div>
<div>Hope for a Village, Inc. mete tèt ansanm ak ekip netwayaj la pou soutni efò kominotè sa a, epi lanse kanpay sa a sou baz depans mwayèn chak jou travay (kombit) ak kantite kombit yo estime ki rete pou netwaye epi retabli kanal la nèt.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kout men ou ap ede:
</div>
<div>• Achte zouti esansyèl tankou gan, bòt, pèl, ak brouèt
</div>
<div>• Bay manje ak dlo pou volontè yo pandan mitan jounen ak apre long jounen travay fizik
</div>
<div>• Retire gwo fatra ki anpeche dlo pase
</div>
<div>• Bay chak volontè yon kit manje pou pot lakay yo yon fwa pa semèn
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Lè nou ede retabli kanal la, nou ede retabli lavi</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Kanal sa a te konn wouze jaden, nouri fanmi, epi mete lavi nan zòn nan. Li kapab fè sa ankò — men se ansanm nou dwe aji.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Pa gen don ki twò piti. Chak gout konte.
</div>
<div>Fè pati mouvman sa a.
</div>
<div>Vin yon gout espwa pou Côtes-de-Fer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Tanpri bay jodi a pou ede dlo koule ankò. Tout don yo se dediksyon taks.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Òganize pa Hope for a Village, Inc., yon òganizasyon 501(c)(3) ki angaje pou leve kominote riral yo ann Ayiti atravè edikasyon, devlopman dirab, ak lanmou pou tout moun.
