Build it Week with Haven: Volunteer Now!
Volunteers will travel to Haiti for one week, live in basic accommodation and work long hours outdoors alongside a local Haitian workforce in the town of Gressier. No previous construction experience is required. So if you are fit and healthy and would love to do something positive and have a life changing experience all you have to do is sign up and start fundraising. All volunteers are required to fundraise €4,500 and your €400 deposit is included in this. We will be living and working in Gressier, which lies 26km from the Capital Port au Prince. This is where the epicentre of the devastating earthquake occurred 2 years ago and saw over 240 thousand Haitians lose their lives in a matter of 12 seconds while the quake lasted. The town of Gressier suffered greatly with 95% of homes destroyed resulting in communities being displaced and families divided up into temporary camps where they are still living today. You can find more information on our website www.havenpartnership.com or contact Cathy on 01 6815 443.

The History of Activelink and Community Exchange
Community Exchange started in October 1999 as a monthly e-mail bulletin aiming at providing a communication channel for groups and individuals involved or interested in the work of community and voluntary organisations in Ireland.
At the time, there was no other online forum where people could find out and/or exchange information and news about the voluntary sector in Ireland and we were hoping that over time, people would find the bulletin a useful environment for sharing information, and for actively contributing to its contents.
In 2001 we set up a website for Community Exchange and Activelink, in order to provide a professional online communications hub where Community and Voluntary groups, NGOs, Charities and the Non-Profit Sector in Ireland could:
- promote their work / activities / campaigns;
- advertise vacancies and volunteering opportunities;
We continue to provide weekly e-mail bulletins for subscribers who prefer to get the information delivered to their computers.
