Good Morning Everyone,
As I write this to you, a team of 10 people with three trucks of food, medicine and 12,000 bottles of water are about 30 minutes outside of Port au Prince. They will go to the Dominican embassy and deliver some supplies there as well as a local church. Once in Port au Prince, the US military will no longer guarantee their safety. As Cristian called and told me they were leaving this morning at 3 AM, I found myself trying to talk him out of going. It can be extremely dangerous for them to drive around with food and water. After listing several reasons why I thought they should not go, he reminded me of our project in the DR and how for 15 years people from the states have given to it. Literally thousands of Americans have sacrificed their time and money to come and work at our project.
