E.G.O.'s faithful friend and former employee, Fifi

In the March 2010 newsletter, the Peavey's shared an update on their previous employee and friend, Fifi. It went as follows, "Do you remember Fifi? She used to work for us. Her husband ran around on her, then gave her HIV/AIDS before he passed away. She is now taking care of her grandchildren as well as her own children, because her daughter also passed away. She recently brought her 6 children/grandchildren in from Port-au-Prince and they have been staying together in Dessalines on someone's porch. However, the owners have just requested that she and her children leave. She told us that she has a small lot, but didn't think that she had enough galvanized sheeting to build."

Shortly after that update, E.G.O. purchased a tent for Fifi & her family. However, they are still in need of a home.

Following are some photos recently taken of Fifi, her family and the tent they have been living in. If you are in any way able to help, stateside contact information for E.G.O. is:
