Circle K Haiti Relief Work Grows in Wake of Earthquake
Dr. Bruce Conn, member of the Rome Kiwanis Club and faculty sponsor of the Berry College Circle K Club, has actively supported development efforts in Haiti for several years. In the wake of the disastrous earthquake there, his sister-in-law has served as Fox News correspondent to the her native Cincinnati area.
Joan Conn has now returned back to the U.S. to coordinate efforts here, but Dr. Conn’s brother, Raymond, and the rest of their staff are still in Haiti. Berry College Circle K has mounted a campaign to support the Restavec Foundation in their earthquake relief efforts, and will continue that support as rebuilding begins down the road. In December, the Foundation began a new partnership with Bill Clinton’s Global Initiative, but that also is long-term.
For now, the immediate need for the Haiti people is for financial support to keep relief flowing. We encourage anyone interested to contact Dr. Conn to donate to the club’s efforts.
