The recent news of the Haiti disaster has really touched my heart and Wesley's. The tragedy of what has occurred has caused so much destruction, death and suffering. I like millions of others have felt helpless at times as to how I can help. I look out our Vacation Home Indiana Winter Cabin Rental that views Lake Webster and feel the tranquility and peace, yet I know miles and miles away there is suffering beyond belief. Humans without shelter, water and food. I cheer for my beloved Indiana Colt's team and yet my heart cannot forget that others are suffering and something more needs to be done.
My Nephew by marriage, Joel Perkins, has his pilots license. Flying has been his passion for years. They reside in Atlanta, GA and he was asked to fly one of Ted Turner's planes to deliver supplies and water to the citizens of Haiti. Ted Turner has donated 1 Million Dollars towards Haiti relief. Joel was asked to perform this duty on the day he was celebrating two of his children's birthdays. He accepted and flew out that day.
This assignment has changed his life forever but he also wanted to do his part to contribute. He was so touched by what he saw especially when it came to the children. He flies back and forth each day from Florida to Haiti. He felt the calling to do more so he almost bought out the entire Wal Mart in Florida with medical supply needs, toys, and candy to bring to Haiti He is spending his own money to do this. Today, Haiti not only received the supplies that Ted Turner has sponsored but so much more including 1,200 blow pops and toys for the children. These innocent children and orphaned children must be so lost and confused in all the chaos the earthquake has caused. My Niece, Michelle is now receiving all sorts of donations from family, friends and even a few strangers.
In addition to this, Joel was able to meet a family from California trying to adopt and save a 7 year old orphan from Haiti. He was able to transport them out of there and fly them to Florida.
So besides our personal Haiti donations we will donate 25% of any cabin rental that occurs in February towards "Haiti Smiles"
Now you can enjoy a great winter cabin rental with lakefront views and help make a difference in Haiti.
We hope everyone will continue to hold Haiti in their prayers.
