                   IN HONOR OF THE HAITIAN FOUNDATION

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. JOHN H. ADLER

                             of new jersey

                    in the house of representatives

                      Tuesday, September 14, 2010

  Mr. ADLER of New Jersey. Madam Speaker, I rise today to honor The 
Haitian Foundation of New Jersey and their outstanding charitable work 
on behalf of the Haitian communities in New Jersey and the people of 
Haiti.
  Led by President Luna Cadley-Jeanty, The Haitian Foundation of New 
Jersey addresses the thoughts and concerns of the local Haitian 
Community, and performs charitable work which benefits the entire 
community. The foundation's membership represents various religious, 
professional, social, fraternal, educational, woman, youth, and senior 
citizen groups throughout the Garden State. The group's 
multiculturalism and tolerance has benefitted New Jersey in numerable 
ways.
  This year when a disastrous earthquake hit Haiti, The Haitian 
Foundation quickly put together a large-scale local relief effort. As 
part of their efforts to aid the earthquake victims, they collected 
lifesaving supplies which went directly to the nation of Haiti. The 
Haitian Foundation also served as an invaluable way for Haiti to 
benefit from the New Jersey's generous spirit. The Haitian Foundation 
helped guide many organizations seeking to help the people of Haiti.
  Madam Speaker, I ask you to join me in honoring The Haitian 
Foundation for their outstanding and dedicated service for those in the 
Haitian communities in New Jersey and in Haiti.
