Friends of the Orphans helps provide financial and volunteer support to more than 30,000 Haitians each year through its orphan home and outreach programs. Friends of the Orphans has suffered great damages due to the recent earthquake in Haiti. Along with loss of staff, volunteers and family members, the Father Wasson Center, its administrative offices and volunteer residence, has completely collapsed. Its St. Damien Medical Center, the only free pediatric hospital in Haiti, also sustained major damage. Friends of the Orphans needs help to rebuild their facilities to continue to provide their much needed services and restore hope for the people of Haiti. All producers, performers, production staff and the venue are providing their products, services and expertise at no charge so that every dollar raised goes directly to helping the people of Haiti through Friends of the Orphans.
