Help Perry raise money

For participating in 2024 DICK'S Sporting Goods Pittsburgh Marathon Weekend

My Story…

Once again this year I am planning to walk/jog 5 kilometers on May 4th to raise money for Haiti H2O. At my age, 75, this now means far more walking than jogging to avoid bitter and painful complaints from  my knees.  But our friends in Haiti often encounter worse troubles and pain, so please give generously.  Thank you!

Description

Haiti H2O is a development organization based in Pittsburgh partnering to transform hope into opportunity in rural Haiti.  Our approach is to take time to listen to local leaders and invest in their ideas, empowering them to make positive change.  We currently work with four rural communities in areas such as education, health and sanitation, business initiatives, home construction, and livestock cooperative.  H2O invests the money raised to impact the lives of people in rural Haiti! Learn more about the work https://haitih2o.org/

Purpose: Investing in Haitian-led solutions for remote villages through construction, agriculture, healthcare, and micro-business projects.

Values:
We believe in:

  • empowering rural Haitians struggling with poverty

  • building relationships based on mutual respect and trust

  • finding long-term solutions that value local strengths and leadership
