Delmas 2 Ground Breaking

Friends and members of The Salvation Army Haiti gathered on March 25, 2012 to break ground for the construction of the new complex in the Delmas 2 neighborhood of Port-au-Prince. International Salvation Army guests were joined by local government and partner representatives to celebrate both the history and the future of The Salvation Army in Haiti and specifically in Port-au-Prince. The new complex will include a church to seat 3,000 people, new kindergarten, primary and secondary school buildings for College Verena, a new clinic building and a social services building.
