Thank you or your part in the vision o World Wide Village. We cant ully know
the impact or the people o Haiti, brought by every dollar, every prayer and
every volunteer eort, as God continues to lead us in this rebuilding eort.
The pace has quickened over the past year, stemming rom recurring
challenges in shipping ood, growing demands rom Haitian organizations
who desire support and our own ocus toward strengthening World Wide
Village in pro-actively operating according to Christ-like principles.
The people o Haiti have all but disappeared rom headline news, making our
job o bringing awareness that much more dicult. Each month the world
seems less cognizant o Haitis ongoing need, yet the present and uture
outlook or Haitian people is plagued with high levels o unemployment,
growing numbers o Cholera cases, hundreds o thousands still living
in makeshit tents with little hope or suitable housing, and the lack o
sustainable agriculture. Only 43% o the aid pledged ater the earthquake
(nearly two years ago) has been disbursed.
As a parent, I simply cannot imagine the desperation elt by almost 700,000
people who battle to survive, living under tarps that leak during the many
torrential rains. Parents are orced to stand, holding their children, during
rainstorms in order to keep them dry as oods rage through their tent cities.
Education, productive work, community progress even celebration andplay all these lie standards are only dreams or those who huddle together
under imsy, weather-exposed hovels. And these unbearable conditions are
all overshadowed by not knowing how their children will be ed each day. The
quest or ood and clean water is their daily, all-consuming struggle.
The responsibility to provide ood services and meet other essential needs
or the poor is not primarily the responsibility o Haitian government welare
programs. Its a higher calling than that. It is a Kingdom responsibility o
Christians. Our Master commissioned us to care or those who are destitute
and thus share Christ with them. Unortunately, we have dropped the ball.
Too oten we blame politicians or dreadul social problems, while neglecting
to generously take responsibility. Because Government does a poor job, we
oten excuse ourselves and ail to contribute something that could actuallymake a dierence.
The vision o World Wide Village goes well beyond simply giving to the
Haitian need. We are called to serve the Haitian people in a way that builds
their uture. As we move into the next era o transorming lives, empowering
communities and loving people, we expect to build on the established
oundations and serve as a orce or positive social, cultural and econ
growth in Haiti. Lie is not about yesterday but about tomorrow. Our p
awareness can and should be the catalyst to turn the nightmarish past
healthy and productive uture.
During the past year, WWV has made appeals to oundations and corp
donors with reasonable success. The expansion o social media has req
continual enhancements to insure that we eectively communicate
riends and supporters. We have also launched expanded program
training pastors in Haiti and we are committed to oering regular leaopportunities or the educators in the schools we administer and suppo
Early in 2011, our Haitian riends elected President Michel Martelly to a 5
term. The parliament caused major delays in the approval o his Prime M
candidate(s), stalling the appointment o new leaders in the various ca
level positions, delaying much-needed services to Haitian citizens. Pre
Martelly is now dealing with a growing problem with Cholera, chall
with national security, issues with the shipping ports, ood shortage
weaknesses in the healthcare delivery system, along with the crisis in ho
We can make a dierence. Please take time to explore this booklet,
listening or Gods call to put your aith into action. Look or new ways to
your gits. The beautiul people o Haiti need us to hear what He is tellion their behal.
My continual prayer or us who have been given so much is that we mig
challenged by the words o John:
I anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in
need but has no pity on him, how can the love o God be in
him? Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but
with actions in truth.1 John 3:17-18
In John 6:1-14, Jesus used the willingness o a small boy, who gave his m
fve loves and two small fsh to eed 5,000+ people. Just imagine wha
can do when we are all willing to share.
May you clearly see your part as you consider Gods direction to you on
o the beautiul people o Haiti.
Sincerely,
From the heart oF World Wide Village
president, randy mortensen...
we will serve the LORD our God and obey his voice. Joshua 22

We envision a day in Haiti when evey child is immunized, enjoys healthy and nutritionaldaily meals, and has access to quality Christian education. The amily unit has been
reestablished, sucient health care acilities exist, local communities have clean, sae
water, and adults are gainully working toward economic sustainability. And, everyone
knows someone who knows Jesus!
World Wide Village (WWV), a 501(c)(3) non-proft organization, was ounded in 2001 by
a group o U.S. entrepreneurs whose hearts were touched by what they saw when they
visited Haiti. The group made a pledge to help amilies by providing unds, resources and
expertise. Our objective is to transorm lives and empower communities through Christianeducation, local churches, nutrition and health care, housing construction, sustainable
agriculture, economic development, and clean water. WWV intends to be a catalyst or
the creation o vibrant communities while working to eliminate chronic dependency and
restore dignity.
Celebrating 10 years is no small milestone or any organization. On August 18, 2011, WWVproudly celebrated its 10-year anniversary as an organization. With Gods help and the
help o our aithul donors, much has been accomplished - yet much remains to be done.
We hope that you will be encouraged by the successes o the past ten years and prompted
to join us to accomplish more in the upcoming years.

numbers are purportedly worse since the 2010 earthquake.)
SANITATION The average American uses 80-120 gallons o water per day. The ave
Haitian uses just under 4 gallons per day. The water and sanitation situation in
is among the most dire in the Western hemisphere. According to the WHO/UN2008 Joint Monitoring Program report, only about 70% o urban residents and
o rural residents have any access to improved water services. Sanitation covera
also very low in both urban (29%) and rural (12%) areas o the country.
HEALTHCARE Only about 3 out o every 5 Haitians has access to some orm o he

dentists. (CIA: The World Factbook)

LOCAL CHURCH A local church is the utmost spiritual hope or the nation o Haiti. WWV strives to
nurture strong Haitian pastors with resources, training and fnancial support. The pastors we work
with are identifed through recommendations and reerences and display high degrees o integrity,
character, and honesty who usually are already leading a congregation.
CHRISTIAN EDUCATION An educated population is essential to a vibrant uture or the country. Making
education readily available in a community and weaving Biblical teaching into basic math, reading,
sciences and history oers the children and ultimately the country an opportunity to excel beyond
the current norms.
CLEAN WATER By introducing clean water wells and chlorine-generating systems with solar-powereddistribution systems, the problem o unsae water is alleviated. The availability o latrines and other
simple waste disposal systems virtually eliminate the transmission o diarrheal diseases. Community
education on sae sanitation habits, urther decreases the instances o disease.
HEALTHCARE Partnering with local Haitian medical providers, doctors, nurses and dentists, assists
in the rebuilding o an extremely weak health care delivery system. Regular visits rom American
providers supplement the work o and transer skills to the Haitian providers.
NUTRITION Serving highly nutritious rice meals or school lunches, in childrens homes and emergency
situations, addresses malnourishment in young children. Medika Mamba is a sustainable product
made rom Haitian grown peanuts and processed by Haitian workers. It is a lie-saving treatment orKwashiorkor (severely malnourished) suering children.
SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE Small scale projects involving 20-50 individuals working cooperatively to
produce vegetables and natural nutritional supplements is the beginning o sel-sustainability. When
organized into small cooperative buying and selling units the likelihood o success is multiplied many
times over because o the eciencies gained.
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Since the inception o WWV the goal has been to create opportunities
or men and women to earn a air living in order to support their amilies. We continue to support
entrepreneurs rom the very small to the ast growing enterprises. Transer o business knowledge
rom US businessmen to the Haitian entrepreneurs increases exponentially the potential or success.
HOUSING CONSTRUCTION Improved construction standards are critical to the uture well-being o
the occupants o any concrete structure. WWV works to improve construction standards using locally
available materials and training Haitian construction workers by having them work side-by-side with
their American counterparts.

Ministry o Jesus Christ o Luly) or 18 years. In 2002, they
opened the Ecole Communautaire Mixte de Jesus Christ

WWV has recognized great need in the community o Luly inadequate education, altering economy, poor nutrition

Recent health checks o children at the Luly Community School
indicate that an alarming 30% o the students currently suer

childhood malnutrition. This shocking assessment caused the
WWV team to embark on a community survey o conditions

In September 2011, a small group o women planted 120 Moringa trees in a garden plot in Luly. Moringa is oten reerred to a
Miracle Tree throughout the tropics due to its exceptionally nutritious leaves. Leaets are dried, ground and added to daily m
The leaves contain seven times the Vitamin C o oranges, our times the Vitamin A o carrots, our times the Calcium o milk, t
times the potassium o bananas, three times the iron o spinach, and two times the protein o yogurt. It is a superb addition to
narrow diet o the Luly community. Equally miraculous is its ability to grow in a drought and grow incredibly quickly, reachin
to eight eet within three months.
The Community Garden program ocuses on sustainability
through education, locally-sourced materials, idea sharing,
and community cooperation. A Haitian manager oversees
and directs the program. Projected results, based on similarly
sized operations, are or the operation to produce positive cash

to begin the Community Garden and expand it over the next

Cholera reached epidemic proportions in Haiti in late 2010
and continued throughout 2011. Clean and sae water
is desperately needed in the Luly community. Currently
residents must walk long distances or access to water andoten the water quality is questionable. A clean water well
has been dug on WWV property in Luly, providing a sucient
supply o water. Soon, a solar powered submersible pump
with battery backup will be added to the water distribution
system thereby supplying the electricity to power the pump.
Expanded public health training on water borne diseases and
personal cleanliness is planned.
WWV introduced solar powered water puriying systems rom

In 2002, Pastor Joissaint Mesilas ounded The Ecole Autonom
Communautaire des Freres Unis de Williamson (Autonomous Commu
School o the United Brethren o Williamson The Williamson School)school is located approximately 50 miles rom Port au Prince. Pastor Jois
has been married to Roselaure or 12 years and has our children M
Montessori, age 10; Jose, age 9; John, age 7; and Samanthe, age 4.
The Williamson School became a part o the WWV Student Sponso
program in 2010. At that time WWV began supporting the school by oe
administration support, paying teachers and sta, providing school lunc
and regular medical checkups. Visiting WWV teams have conducted teacher trainings, conducted soccer camps, attended ch
services, built school desks, distributed Bibles, dresses, and TOMS Shoes. Our generous supporters have provided unds to imp
the school and church building with a new roo and sidewalls as well as contributing to the monthly operating costs or both
school and church.
WWV was introduced to the village o Dumont in 2008 at the
request o a collaborative partner. No Time or Poverty was
building a pediatrics clinic in Port Salut and also supporting
Coeur School in nearby Dumont. As their clinic progressed
the decision was made to concentrate their eorts soley on
developing and operating the clinic, No Time or Poverty asked
WWV to assume administrative and fnancial support o the
elementary school.
Dumont is a six-hour drive rom Port au Prince. Its lush, tropical
setting is worlds away rom the bustle o the capital city. Coeur
School, run by headmaster, Seraphin Bonne Annee, consists
o a pair o three-classroom buildings housing 238 children.Through student sponsorships and generous donations, WWV
has been able to increase teacher salaries and provide school
lunches fve days each week. Student population at Coeur
School is expected to increase signifcantly in 2011-2012.
In the nearby village o Macabee, WWV supports an ater sc

WWV visitors to the Tree o Lie Childrens Home in Bon Repos (just outside o Po
Prince) have allen in love with the 26 children who live there. These adorable child
have been the benefciaries o:
Brightly painted walls
New dining room tables and chairs
Propane stoves to replace their charcoal cooking stoves
A water fltration system
New clothes and TOMS Shoes
A thrill-flled new playground set
Most importantly, WWV donors have provided assistance in the orm o ood, vitam
health care, Medika Mamba treatment or malnutrition and lots o love.
Many areas o Haiti were severely damaged during the 2010
earthquake. Rosembert is one o them. Located just outside
o Port au Prince, Rosembert is home to approximately 35,000
residents. It is in a low-lying area and during the rainy season
is plagued with large amounts o standing water which
produce swarms o mosquitos. As a result, malaria is a great
concern. Sadly, voodou temples are prominent in the village.The time and resources o many dedicated WWV volunteers
have enabled considerable improvement to the community. A
water purifcation system was deployed there. North American
medical providers have worked alongside a Haitian doctor,
nurses and a Haitian dentist at a Haitian owned and oper
clinic. A deep water well has been unded, solving a despe
need. Lots o paint has been applied. Over 245 children a
Rosembert School run by Mislary Pierre received new T
Shoes and dental hygiene training. And, the most impa
contribution was the 2-bedroom house built by the Bui
Association o the Twin Cities or Madame Jude who loshome in the earthquake and was orced to live, with her m
generational amily, in two tents made rom tarps and
sheets. This amily was blessed beyond words with their
living quarters.
