Not Forgotten: Paige Armstrong Dedicates a Song to Haiti
One year ago on January 12th, Haiti was devastated by an earthquake. Paige Armstrong wrote and released a moving song called, “Not Forgotten” to honor the 1 year anniversary of the event. Paige wrote in her blog:
Over a million people are living in tents with unspeakable conditions. Of the survivors still living in tents, approximately 380,000 are children. Women and children, as young as 4 and 5, are being raped by gangs operating unchecked in the 1,200 refugee camps.
Though money has been pledged to help Haiti from several countries, most of that money and help has yet to arrive. I was shocked to hear that less than 5% of the debris from the earthquake has been cleared… leaving enough to fill dump trucks parked bumper to bumper halfway around the world.

While it has been a year since this tragedy, it is clear that the Haitian people are still in great need of prayers and help. Though a year of other disasters and needs have piled up since theirs, they cannot be forgotten.
