Nouvelles en bref

August 29th, 2014.-Since Hurricane Sandy destroyed its water distribution system, Port-a-Piment has been left without water. This situation causes various health problems among its citizens. Konbit Pou Potapiman , in its quest to help find a solution, has partnered with Columbia University and the Engineers Without Borders of Netherland. Both organizations are working toward the aim of providing the precious liquid to the people of Port-a-Piment.  The Port-a-Piment Municipal Authorities and DINEPA ( Haiti State Water Authority) have already given the green light for the project.

Feasibility study drinking water after Sandy – Port-a-Piment, Haïti
.
During Hurricane Sandy the water supply system for the city sustained extensive damages. The original water supply network consisted of water from a mountain reservoir which was piped for 8 to 10 miles to the city’s municipal distribution system which then provided water to individual households connected to the system. Since the pipes transporting water from the reservoir to the distribution system were destroyed during the hurricane, the city has not had a source of clean and reliable water for over one year.
More information can be found in the report “Preliminary Information Regarding the Labeyi Water Supply Source for Port-a-Piment” here >>

Carpentry, Plumbing, Sewing etc..  During this visit, 4 boxes full of donated sewing supplies were delivered to Ms. Rose-Adege Louis, Director of the Sewing curriculum.

Ms. Rose-Adège assisted by a few students  thanked Konbit Pou Potapiman Inc. and Mrs. Livie Magloire Louis for their  interest and help in getting the supplies to CDCSH. The students were happy to see the various fabrics that would be at their disposal in the coming school year
