Ways of Helping Diakonos Orphanage

some of the kids at Diakonos

A friend recently asked me about making a donation to Diakonos international without using her credit card. Of course everything is possible. Donations can also be made through the Project Director here in Port Au Prince via Western Union.

Western Union Port Au Prince, Carrefour branch
Name: Jean Luc Petit Frere
A/C number: 440 612 754

Another alternative for cheques and money orders can be made via Diakonos International, Inc., P.O. Box 111401, Cambia Heights, NY 11410 US of A

You can also send resources (pencils, books, colours, etc.) direct to the orphanage. The postal address in Daikonos International, Kominote Tifanmi Nou, Mon Repos 40, #69 Rue Mathon, Carrefour, Port au Prince, Haiti.

Credit card donations can be made by clicking here.

Critical additions to the current facilities include: -

• At least a computer newer than 10 years old for the office that can access the Internet
• The repair and completion of an external wall for additional security
• A van to transport the children safely around the city, as well as collect and drop-off supplies around the city
• Pens, pencils and school exercise books
• Basic toys and games
• To build at least another toilet on-site
• Shoes and clothes
• Food supplies are very limited at the moment, with prices for staple goods fluctuating wildly – any donations of food will be very much appreciated.
• Old computers for the students to develop ICT skills
