A Henderson-based non-profit group dedicated to helping people devastated by the 2010 Haiti earthquake will organize a major supply delivery next week.

Joseph Provost will deliver 12 pieces of aid-filled luggage to needy people in Haiti. This dozen brings the overall total to 45 pieces of luggage delivered in the past three months. The suitcases are packed with clothing, rice, air mattresses, and medical supplies.

When Provost, 72, discovered the doctor-to-patient ratio in Haiti is 10,000-to-1, he created The Friends of Haiti Inc., a 501 c(3) charity whose mission is to provide scholarships to Haitian medical students. 

Scholarship students pledge to remain in their country for a minimum of five years upon graduation to help their fellow citizens.

If it’s time to forget about that lost love once and for all, Goodwill wants to help.

The men and women who keep us safe on the highways of southern Nevada brought the holiday spirit to children and the homeless Wednesday.

The Nevada Highway Patrol delivered toys to children at University Medical Center, Sunrise Children's Hospital and St. Rose Dominican Siena Campus.

Troopers gave $10 from their paychecks for the past year. All the money was used to buy the gifts for the kids.

"It is the greatest gift that anyone can ask for. When you see a child's eyes light up, for that one moment, it takes away the pain and really helps them get through the holiday seasons," Trooper Jeremie Elliott said.

The troopers also donated blankets to homeless people camping near I-15 and D Street.
