If you’ve been following HOPE Art’s Dress Drive, then you’ll love seeing these beautiful girls in Haiti wearing their new homemade sundresses. Melissa, Jenni, Stefanie and Jacq traveled back to Port-Au-Prince just a couple of weeks ago and not only delivered dozens of dresses to Nadine’s orphanage (OJFA), but to many other schools as well. Over 300 delivered on this trip, and almost 80 more are ready to go out in April. I believe that the girls all dressed up for a birthday party for Phara, the tallest in the back. All she wanted for her 15th birthday was some American pizza. The HOPE Art ladies made it happen, along with some other special treats that you can see in the Facebook album HERE.
Interested in getting involved? HOPE Art will be traveling back to Haiti often and would love to take as many dresses as we can on each trip. Follow the HOPE Art Dress Project posting to find out how to participate.
To all the generous seamstresses who made this project SO successful, words cannot express how grateful we are. We never in our wildest dreams imagined surpassing our original goal of 30 by tenfold, and growing. We thank you from the bottom of our very full hearts. — Project HOPE Art
