While the eruption of Eyjafjallajokull in Iceland may have drawn the world’s attention away from their troubles, the people of Haiti continue to struggle in the effort to rebuild their shattered nation. This has not escaped the Edgartown School’s parent/teacher organization, who are holding a clothing drive through the end of April to directly benefit the Sacre Coeur Hospital, and the Children of the Promise orphanage, located in Milot, Haiti. Spring cleaners filling garbage bags with hand-me-downs and other unwanted garments are encouraged to drop them in the boxes at the front entrance of the school. Remember, Haiti is close to the equator: heavy sweaters and outerwear are not needed.
