| Victory for Haiti: $1.2 billion in Debt Cancellation | |
|---|---|
 |
|
The Haitian people have won a great victory against historical injustice with the June 30, 2009 announcement of the cancellation of $1.2 billion in multilateral debt. Thanks to everyone who made this possible: Rep. Maxine Waters and her colleagues in the U.S. Congress, Jubilee USA and all the other NGOs that pitched in, and especially to all the people who wrote, called, faxed, fasted and demonstrated in support of this just cause. |

Fr. Gerry was our client, but also a friend and an inspiration. We’ll post some photos, videos and articles about Fr. Gerry on this site, to help us all remember.
