Seeing is Believing!

Even the snowy, blustery, icy grasp of winter storm Titan couldn't stop FFP's February 13-18 review trip to the Dominican Republic and Haiti! (Although taking off at JFK in the midst of the storm was nothing short of a miracle and an experience we won't soon forget!)

Yeah, we took off in this!
If God makes a way, it's going to happen!

Twice a year Foundation for Peace leaders, prospective trip participants, donors and anyone interested in FFP are invited to join us on a review trip in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. For six days we travel between the two countries visiting many current FFP projects, meeting with community leaders and scoping out prospective projects.

Meeting with Pastor Jackie and visiting Batey Algodon

Time and again trip participants express amazement that FFP has done—and is doing—so much in the two countries. Said one February trip participant, "I've been on a mission trip and thought I knew all about FFP. But seeing the scope and reach of FFP completely blew me away. I am so proud to be part of an organization that is truly making a difference!"

Said another participant, "Usually when I give money to an organization I'm never sure if the money will actually used the way I hope. Going on the FFP review trip and seeing with my own eyes how much Foundation Peace has accomplished, how communities are literally being transformed and how much hope is being shared ... I can see every single penny I donated is being put to amazing use!"

Linet Madeja was so inspired by the experience that she created a video of the February review trip. Watch it, and we promise it will be the most uplifting and inspiring 15 minutes of your day! Click and see for yourself . . .




The next FFP review trip will be November 6-11, 2014. Contact Wendy Patchin if you're interested or would like more information. The cost less than $300 (plus airfare)!
