About this facility
- Mission
- from website: Reiser Relief Inc. is a nonprofit 501(c)3 corporation founded by Father Bernard Reiser who has been involved with Haiti outreach programs for over 13 years. Run entirely by volunteers, Reiser Relief is based in Coon Rapids, Minnesota. The major goal of its mission is to help the impoverished people of the Caribbean country of Haiti, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. The social and environmental problems are the greatest challenges the people of Haiti are facing today. In the midst of these problems, we are compelled to provide the essential services to aid in day-to-day survival. The services Reiser Relief provides include: fresh water, food centers, education, and eldercare facilities. Many outreach projects are in or near Cité Soleil; the suburb of the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince. Reiser Relief provides assistance to Haiti focused on the basic necessities of life: Food, Water, Education, and Building Facilities.

Notes
2010
A New Year Begins
Emergency Haiti Earthquake Relief Urgently Needed! The Caribbean nation of Haiti was hit by a magnitude 7.0 earthquake, it’s the most powerful earthquake in more than 200 years and causing what is being described as "a catastrophe of major proportions"
The quake struck shortly before 5 p.m on January 12, 2010 and was centered about 10 miles southwest of Port-au-Prince, the U.S. Geological Survey reported. Many of Reiser Relief projects are so close to this epicenter. We hope to hear more from our Reiser Relief staff in Haiti, but as you can imagine so many buildings and communications are down. Please keep the people of Haiti in your prayers.
