Highlights for 2007 to date

In the United States
Following our first AEDAP fundraising Gala in 2007, AEDAP sponsored Aubry Blague in his Great Christmas Initiative benefiting the Children of Haiti.

AEDAP created a draft of a collaborative community calendar that showcases the monthly activities scheduled by our various Community Organizations. It is hoped that the continued promotion of our collaborative community calendar prevents duplicated activities and will reduce scheduling conflicts in 2009.

In 2007, AEDAP designed two web sites: www.ALINHA.org and www.goodsamaritanforbetterlife.org, and provided technical support for these two existing organizations. This support will help existing orga­nizations like them promote their mission and gain gradual exposure for their activities.

In December 2007 AEDAP donated toys to Churches and Shelters for Christmas. We also assisted in providing emergency clothing to Battered Women’s Shelters.

In January 2008, AEDAP partnered with the Haitian American Leadership Organization (HALO) to present the Media Forum. This is part of AEDAP’s objective to encourage new media initiatives; AEDAP believes this Media Forum is one way to encourage public discussion and dialogue.

In September 2008, AEDAP had its second leadership retreat. AEDAP sponsored ALINHA and PROFAMIL in 2007.

In October 2008, AEDAP had its first leadership follow-up “make-up” meeting at Nuvo Cafe – the purpose of community leadership follow-up is to maintain the promotion of AEDAP’s mission and vision.
