And they’re off. Second team of Haiti Relief volunteers left yesterday, for a two week mission to Haiti. Team Kitsilano left Surrey Gurdwara on Thursday, February 4th at 5pm. The team and the sangat took part in an Ardaas for the team and the people of Haiti.
The team along with their smiles and high spirits, took along toys, school supplies, kitchen utensils, tents and camping supplies as well as Canadian Flags. The first team had requested sending Canadian flags as the people of Haiti really appreciate the work and effort of all Canadians along with relief workers from across the world. We thought that by sending small Canadian flags, it would be a great way to give them something to remember all the many Canadians taking part in the Haiti Relief effort from all over Canada.
The team consists of Karnail Singh, Jasvir Singh, Surjit Singh, Ramandeep Singh and Sukwinder Singh.
During the next two weeks the team will be sending updates about their journey and first hand account from the disaster zone.
