Preparing for the Trip
We are less than a month away from leaving for Leogane, Haiti. For those of you wondering, Rik, his best friend Ryan, and I are going to Haiti March 26- April 2. We are joining a group called Hands on Disaster Response. They are a wonderful group who did work in Haiti after the hurricane disasters in 2008. Upon arrival at the site, they provide everything you need while you are with them. Check them out at hodr.org. We feel this is the best organization to join because of their willingness to let us join for only a week. We are very excited about our trip but we know this is going to be a challenge like no other. We need everyone's thoughts and prayers while we are in Haiti.

Dear Kathleen,
ReplyDeleteYou certainly do have my thoughts and prayers for your journey and your work in Haiti. As I mentioned when you first told me about your trip, I am very proud of you for being so giving in this way. I hope that you will be able to communicate with us but we know the work you will have at hand will drive your days. We will follow and if you do get moments of Internet access we will look forward to hearing from you!
All the best! To Rik and Ryan as well!
