It complements other condolence books being compiled for those affected by the Haiti earthquake. 00 --------------------------------------------------------- The page has been created as a mark of respect and to honour the lives of current and former UNV volunteers who lost their lives. The disaster killed more than 100,000 Haitians, plus many people working with the United Nations in the country. We deeply mourn them all. It was confirmed on 16 January that among the dead was Nivah Odwori, a Kenyan national working as a UNV volunteer District Coordinator with the United Nations Stabilization Mission in Haiti (MINUSTAH). Emmanuel Rejouis, a Haitian national who had volunteered with UNV in Rwanda, Central Africa, Nigeria, South Africa and East Timor, died along with two of his young daughters. There remain several UN workers still unaccounted for at the time of writing, including two more UNV volunteers. A memorial service was held in Haiti on 28 January for the UN workers who died, and UNV continues to coordinate with other UN agencies on relief and recovery activities in Haiti. Click here for more information on UNV's disaster recovery activities and how to register your profile in the UNV database.

I could not help but read the article on the burial of Ms. Odwori. The article was basically about all of UN's elite and Kenya's elite--who cares whether the Prime Minster attends your funeral? You place such superficial importance on people who at the end of the day are just regular folk. You did not even name Ms. Odwori's own parents or the Mesham family that lived with her for 10 YEARS. Come on guys, you serve the poor and nobody's of society, this is so out of character for you...it contradicts your mission.These so-called 'dignitaries' did not personally know Ms. Odwori.They can escort you to the grave to make it as important an event as their job titles, but you are on your own in the life thereafter.

May their souls REST IN PERFECT PEACE UNV George Lisinge, UNMIS-SUDAN ----------------------------- It is indeed sad to see so many lives lost and the devastation that occurred as a result of the earthquake in Haiti. I thank God everyday for blessing me with life when I wake up, and I know how fortunate I am just to be alive. I urge all those that are living a comfortable life to render your assistance to those in need, and may God steer the way for Haiti and her people. “May the love hidden deep inside your heart find the love waiting in your dreams.

I happened to stay there for six months last November 11,2006 up to May 12, 2007. After seeing the devastated country I wanted to go back and wanted to help but I don't have the capacity to do it right now. I remember I register in unvolunteer.org.last March 2008 and i haven't received any positive feedback. I'm still hoping that they will give me a chance to do the volunteering jobs. To the Haitians people, and other nationalities that lost their lives and to the families that survived may God will comfort each and everyone to enlighten the pains through this difficult time. My heart goes to all the victims.

Anurag Gupta ----------------------------- Appearing as a sign of the end of the World, the terrible Earthquake that has hit people in Haiti in particular has also hit all the world in general, that why Mr. René Kyalimba Schadaray, say that it could be ungrateful for UNMIT Aviation Section and for all Congolese to remain silent in such unconscient and terrible untimely demise & disparition of our colleagues, brothers and Sisters in Christ died prematurely by the Earthquake without presenting our sincere and deepest Condolences to their relatives ,families and companies for this big loss that will never be compensated. Worldwide, we pray that Almighty God gives them Eternal Peace that surpasses human being understanding and let their souls rest in peace near Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Moreover this, we pray also for all the UNVs remaining in action and still in life by God grace in Haiti , to have courage and continue to serve the world as volunteers in all aspect despite... in Teamwork and with all their professionalism as usual. Prayers-Thanks and Blessing on line. “ reneschadaray999@yahoo.fr René Schadaray Kyalimba ----------------------------- PLease let me know how can I be consider or register me to be a voluntier in different programms that Unicef is involved.
