The COVID-19 crisis has put all of us in a situation of uncertainty. Here in the United States we are faced with social distancing that creates inconvenient situations for work, shopping, church or staying in contact with family and friends. Fortunately we will soon be receiving Stimulus Checks of up to $1,200 per adult to try and boost the economy in these turbulent times. This money needs to go into the US economy to bolster the economic situation. However, many of us also like to tithe, and feel an obligation to give 10% to charity.
Haiti is also experiencing the start of the Coronavirus. They have no CARES Act, no Paycheck Protection Program, and no stimulus payments. By tithing from our Stimulus Checks, we could offer business opportunities to help families in the mission house area with money for seeds or other startup costs so they can make it on their own during this time of crisis. A tithe of our handout can become their handup!
If your heart is calling you to help our brothers in Haiti, Helping Hands for Haiti would welcome your donation.
