September 2013 LASC


The Latin America Solidarity Committee 
SEPTEMBER 2013 COFFEEHOUSE, titled
    IN SOLIDARITY WITH HAITI
was about local projects around solar power and micro-loans.

The date was  7-9 pm Monday, September 23;  the place was
Network of Religious Communities 1272 Delaware Avenue.
     The  speakers:
Paige Mecca directs Solar Liberty Foundation (WNY), with Haitian solar    projects in Port-au-Prince and Ile-a-Vache.   www.solarliberty.org

Katherine Mang works with Mothers Clubs of Haiti, a successful micro-lending program offering hope to rural Haitian families. She reported on recent work-visits.   www.mclubsh.org

It was a very lively and inspiring presentation, with lots of questions and discussion, and lots of ideas generated.
