Dear Friend,

On behalf of Friends of the Orphans, I want to thank our supporters around the world. If you have made a contribution at this critical time, you have helped us to provide more than $1 Million to Nuestros Pequeños Hermanos/Nos Petits Freres et Soeurs (NPH/NPFS, Spanish and French for “Our Little Brothers and Sisters”) for the earthquake relief effort. We realize that there are many organizations you could have chosen to support during this catastrophic time. We thank you for choosing us.

Watch Fr. Rick's video messageWe are humbled by the outpouring of support as well as the heroic actions of staff members and volunteers in Haiti. For a report from the ground, please watch this video message from Fr. Rick Frechette, National Director of NPH/NPFS Haiti.
