Welcome to the website of Global Hope Network International Switzerland (GHNI Switzerland)!
This site is currently under construction. Thank you for your patience. Please visit our U.S. website for more information at www.ghni.org.
Dear Friends,
Has your heart been touched by the unbelievable horror on the individual faces of the victims of the earthquake in Haiti? I know our staff’s hearts have been, especially since we have friends from there.
Credible on the ground partners need immediate help
Global Hope Network International Switzerland is partnering with aid workers with a long history of effective work in Haiti. We have chosen them because they make maximum use of the resources given them and because they possess a long term view of true development to self sustainability after the relief phase.
One of our partners, Santa Fe Swanee in Tampa Bay Inc., is a shipper that has 20 containers of water, dried nutrious food mixtures and medical supplies he is loading even as we speak. These precious supplies will be shipped by small crafts to internally displaced people in Haiti to be delivered to remote places.
Our other partner provides primary education and healthcare to some really needy communities near the capital of Haiti, Port-au-Prince. Their clinic has been damaged and they are currently operating out of a makeshift clinic that locals are flocking to in order to receive treatment. They are in desperate need of medical supplies, bottled water and food as well as assistance to help rebuild the medical clinic.
You can help
All of our staff have been driven to action by this earthquake. Like you, we won't go there. Our partners on the ground will do that. But we want to help them and the dear ones they serve to.
If your heart wants to help, please consider joining us. Any donation from 1chf/€ to thousands of chf/€ will bring so much needed help in the form of water, food and medical supplies to the suffering Haitians.
345chf/230€ cover purchase and shipping of 1 ton of water, food and medical supplies (you can donate online through PayPal)
Sincerely,
Hal Jones Juerg Loeliger
CEO, GHNI Switzerland President, GHNI Switzerland
Exciting news from Myanmar!
Thanks to your generosity (thank you for coming to our concerts with benefit of Myanmar in Thoiry in June 2009 and in Geneva in Nov 2009), we were able to raise enough funds to purchase 11 pigs and a plowing machine and we almost finished building a house for the orphans (see the attached pictures). All these things help the orphans on the way to self-sustainability. The children want to thank you with the last attached picture (it was taken when we were there in Aug 2009).
