This March, the Ole Miss football family is going back to Haiti to help at Camp Marie. 7,000 PEOPLE WITHIN CAMP MARIE DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO CLEAN WATER. As a result they are at risk for waterborne illnesses, such as Cholera and Typhoid. With the execution of a clean water project, in partnership with Water Missions International (WMI), the community’s access to clean water will drastically reduce the risk of illness and dehydration.
We started to help on the water project last year and are going back this year to finish it. The project consisted of drilling a bore and pumping the water into a storage tank, installing a clean water treatment system and building a central access point for the community to obtain clean water. This also will reduce the time it takes to collect water each day - giving back potential income/school hours in the day and improving the overall quality of life.
The cost to send one student is $1,775. This includes airfare, ground transportation, translator, lodging, meals, and medical insurance. Please help us send these young leaders to help represent Ole Miss as they change the lives of those that need help.
We know that this is not possible without your help therefore please help us by being a Rebel for a cause and give to support this missions’ trip to Haiti.
Please note: Donations to Rebels for Haiti do NOT receive Athletics Foundation credit or Priority Points.
Your $10 gift helps cover most of the expense for medical insurance for a participant.
