We have received some questions about shipping and how we will be shipping the peanut butter to Haiti. The Northwest Christian Haiti Mission will be shipping all of it down and sending it with their people for distribution. We will be doing fundraisers to help the mission with the costs of shipping. However, at the moment our goal and focus is on gathering the peanut butter and getting it all together. We will help get it down to the people as soon as possible, and hopefully after three weeks the airports in Haiti will be up and running smoothly especially to ship it down.
Thanks for the all question and support. Tell your friends in your hometowns and your friends in other cities. This is such a great cause and we look forward to everyone's support with this fantastic undertaking!
Last year Scott County High School participated in a peanut butter drive for the Northwest Christian Haiti Mission. You can follow up on their ministries and any updates on their website. Last year we were able to collect 500 jars of peanut butter to send down to the people of Haiti. However, with the earthquake that has hit recently we feel it is even more important to raise more than last year. This year our goal is 3 million jars for the 3 million people that live there. Many people in Haiti do not have refrigeration units in their homes and peanut butter is an excellent source of protein that does not need to be refrigerated and will keep for an extended amount of time.
