Here's our first blog post - the first of many. We hope you are as excited as we are (for this blog but mostly for our trip to Haiti).
To prepare for Port-au-Prince we have been meeting weekly. Our meetings have covered Haitian development issues, international development in general, Haitian history, and pre- and post-earthquake Haiti. This week, on Friday December 2nd, we will be hosting a Haitian speaker from the National Organization for the Advancement of Haitians (NOAH). Hearing about Haiti from a Haitian is going to be an invaluable part of our preparations for the trip.
Stay tuned for information on our group members and more updates on our trip preparations!
