Project Haiti Dinner
September 2008
Holy Apostles Catholic Church
In 1994, Saint Alphonsus became aware of a great need in poverty-stricken Haiti. Two Catholic priests had founded a hospital called St. Damien Hospital, and an orphanage named Our Little Brothers and Sisters, to care for the many abandoned children who are dying from AIDS in Haiti. It is an island of hope in a sea of despair. For ticket information, please call 208-367-3997.
