COHAN –FEDDI is an organization that runs a school and an orphanage. They have been our beneficiary for the
past 10 years or so. The school has a total of seven hundred students.
The person in charge of COHAN-FEDDI, Mrs Maud Laurent, is grateful that the donor was able to come up with
such great furniture that she could benefit from. She finally can put computers on desks received from this
shipment. Her computer class got an instant facelift. To repeat her word: “At last, the school is getting better
furniture. I can concentrate on other matters now!”
Since there is also an orphanage, they also received dressers and mattresses from this shipment.
Mrs. Laurent said ‘’as long as she live she will always pray for the people of FFP and even more for the donors”.
Mrs. Laurent was speechless when she received all the goods. She was thankful to all that gesture toward her
school and orphanage.
Orphelinat ‘’Les Amis de Jésus’’ is located in Kenscoff. This locality is about 15 miles from Port-au-Prince, up
in the mountains. The nights are usually wet and cold.
Orphelinat les Amis de Jésus cares for 20 children and Claudette Jean Francois is one of the caretakers. The
following is her testimony when she saw the mattresses delivered to the orphanage. “Thank God for Food For The
Poor and the Charitable donors. With their donation, the kids will no longer sleep directly on the cold floor.” She
was in tears.
She could not believe how blessed she was to receive these mattresses. “No more body aches or sleepless night
from lying on the cold floor. Thank you so much. May God bless the great donors that made this miracle possible!”
From this donation, the orphanage also received a freezer and tables for its cafeteria.
The cafeteria of the orphanage
Eglise Saint Louis Marie de Montfort, is our neighbor church. They are located right next to our premises. Father
Nicolas came to us many times asking about getting furniture for their offices. We wanted to offer him the most
beautiful ones we could find in our warehouse.
When this donation came about, Father Nicolas was able to furnish his bishoprics with adequate visitor chairs,
tables and bed set. He was happy and grateful for the goods received. “I know that the work you are doing can
sometime be very difficult, but I will pray to God to help alleviate the burden you might encounter during such
journey. We ask you to never put down your faith, to always put your prayers to Him and He will gratify you”.
Those were the thankful words of Father Nicolas towards the donors.

FOYER RENMEN is an orphanage ran by Florence Thybulle. It has been serving the homeless and needy
children for the past 21 years. At the moment, the orphanage cares for 45 children. There is also a school built on
the premises two years after the orphanage.
Knowing the needs and the effort that, the owner, Mrs. Thybulle was making, for her orphanage receive some
furniture.
Mrs. Thybull said: “she’s really happy to receive that furniture, because with them she was able to arrange the
kid’s clothing and hoping to receive more for the new rooms that she’s building”. She thanks all the group of FFP
specially the donor that send the furniture. They are really there for her orphanage. She said that if today her
orphanage is beautiful it’s because of the favor of the donors of FFP.
On behalf of our beneficiaries, we thank you for this donation!
