Leaving for Haiti..

Students for Haiti has changed my life in more ways than one. Our organization's collective accomplishments through fundraising efforts, growing our family of members and spreading awareness, & completion of our goal to rebuild Villa clinic opened my eyes to the realm of possibility and understanding that individually and together, we can make great change. It has allowed me to be a part of something so incredible and to work with others who share an overwhelming passion. Through creating Bay Lavi, my experience in college has been illuminated, impacted, and my overall path in life diverted.

In two days, 8 of us on the Executive Board are traveling down to Haiti including Dan Reyes, Victoria Winslow, Alli Serencko, William O'Reagan, Alyssa Detruex, Matthias Fallis, Jacob Joseph & myself. We're going to be meeting with the St. Boniface Foundation & spending time in Fond des Blanc, Mouillage Fouquet, as well as visiting schools in the community. 

After a year and half of working ardently to fundraise and spread awareness of our mission and conditions in Haiti, I'm greatly anticipating our trip down. Visiting the various sites and meeting with people in the Haitian community will grant all of us a better understanding of how we can help and what needs to be accomplished. It's going to be a rewarding experience that will re-ignite our motivation.
Gaining new insight and inspiration will help me re-vamp the Bay Lavi product line, perhaps having Haitian people help with the new designs! :)
