one thing i've learned & continue to learn: this life is not mine own or about our version of the end result but joyfully & painfully about the transformation process

haiti

it's been 2 and a half months since the earthquake hit haiti but i forget that some days since our main news sources have moved on to discussing/covering other news stories that are just as important to our nation.

but i do have days where haiti & the haitians come to my mind, causing me to pray for the people of haiti who still remain homeless, the haitian government, & those organizations who've been in the trenches before & after the january earthquake.

someone shared this website with me & i wanted to pass it along so that if you're continuing to think of the haitians, curious of a way to invest in their restoration, you have one.
ahomeinhaiti.org

plus, worldvision.org provides you a place to donate $$ to the organization's decades long work in the country

  1. Partners in Health (www.pih.org, www.standwithhaiti.org) is another great organization that has a long history in Haiti. If you've never read a book called Mountains Beyond Mountains, it provides some great insight into the medical infrastructure issues in the country even before the earthquake.
