On Our Way to Haiti

February 9, 2010

Dear friends,

We’re on our way to Haiti now, via the circuitous route that the damaged Haitian airport and the daunting US weather demand. We’ll be arriving on Thursday to begin working with people on the ground and exploring partnerships with the Haitian government and local and international NGO’s, churches, schools, and other community groups. I’m going with Rosemary Murrain, our Director of Administration and Finance, who has worked in Haiti, and Star Myrtil, a young Haitian woman who has been a Program Manager for NGO’s and speaks Creole as well as French.

We’ll let you know more when we’re on the ground; meanwhile, here’s a brief description of the work we hope to be doing.

All my best,

Jim
