GOOD NEWS ON HAITI DEBT

Last week we sent you a Bulletin to “Cancel Haiti’s Debts & Provide Grants Not Loans.”

Today we learned that the world's seven most industrialized nations (G7) have pledged to write
off their countries' debts with Haiti. The G7 summit of France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the UK,
US and Canada is taking place this weekend in Canada.

Congratulations to all of us! We are all standing in solidarity with our sisters and brothers in
Haiti through our prayer, donations and calls for debt relief and grants not loans.

This action by the G7, which was motivated in a large part by millions of persons like you,
creates strong momentum for the cancellation of all of Haiti’s debts world wide. This is an
important step in ensuring that the rebuilding of Haiti will not further burden the people there.

For updates on how the US Treasury and the G7 will fulfill their commitments, visit.
