Hurricane Isaac Hit Sirona's Farmers, Hard

 

Saint Jean with his mother and his wife

Today I received the following e-mail from our agronomist, Saint Jean, in southern Haiti.  He writes on behalf of our jatropha farmers whose area took the worst hit from Hurricane Isaac.  They are desperate, I know because he has never written an e-mail like this.  The nursery was wiped out, which can be replaced, but their homes were also destroyed and they are suffering.

 

 

Sirona has always supported our communities by helping them become self-sufficient.  We give them the power to create, use and sell alternative energy.  In the wake of the earthquake we gave financial and charitable assistance, and so on behalf of my farmers I am sending this e-mail to our readers hoping that donations may be made to help them through this recent crisis. 

Dear Michelle,
                        How are you doing? In my side It's not really okay. Haiti is hit by an hurricane, gardens and animals are lost, many houses at 2nd plain are destroyed, the farmers are in difficulties then my mother is sick. how you can assit the farmers? It would be bettter if you use a way to do a donation to the farmers. I need to prepare new plants but I want you do the transfert.
 
 
Best regards

Saint Jean Illace

We will just hope those farmers can recover what they had lost. Those crops were their lives, but we can blame anything because mother nature speaks for it.

Hi! I simply wanted to remark that you sure succeeded in organizing a stunning website. In addition to that I would like to ask you a question that is so curious to me. Have you ever participated in some sort of competitions among online blogs?

Dear Missis Lillian, thank you for your compliments on the blog, no, I haven't ever tried to participate in any blog competitions, it hasn't ever occurred to me! Thanks for thinking it's good enough, for me that's like winning a little prize just by getting your comment. Happy New Year!

Helping the farmers through donation will be a bright idea.
