Hurricane Matthew hit the south coast of Haiti with full force the night of October 3, leaving behind a path of destruction and despair. Strong winds and rain and terrible flooding destroyed many houses and crops. After a sleepless night, many faced the new day with their only possession the damp clothes they were wearing.
A mother clutches her children and stares at the destruction of her little house that she worked so hard on, not knowing how she’ll be able to secure a roof over her children’s heads and feed them. She wonders, after making made so many sacrifices already to send her children to school, Will there be a school for them to attend, knowing the roofs are off so many, the benches blown away?
