Another $6,539 is on its way to Haiti.

Over the last three weeks, the staff and students of Briercrest College and Seminary and Caronport High School have joined together to raise a total of $6,539 for Compassion International�s relief efforts in Haiti.

The fundraiser, an initiative of Briercrest�s student government, included collections taken up around campus and during Justice Chapel January 28 and Day of Action January 29.

�I want to express my sincere gratitude for everyone who has participated in giving so generously�from faculty, staff, college, seminary and CHS students who have all supported the relief and restoration for the Haitian people,� wrote Anthony Henderson, Briercrest�s student body president. �Through our partnership with Compassion International, the people of Haiti will be helped a great deal, and on behalf of the entire student leadership teams, let me say THANK YOU.�

The donation will be matched by the Government of Canada.
