I returned to Haiti a year after my first trip. The first time had been a fulfilling experience and this one proved to be just as rewarding. Arriving in Port Au Prince, conditions were still deplorable but I saw small signs of change. Stepping out from the airport a local man wearing

As a Guiga’s stepfather, I have been following the activities of PFH since the beginning of its efforts after the earthquake of 2010.  I must admit, that I was very proud of her.  I was presented with the opportunity to join the group, so I decided to give a little part of my time

This is my 9th trip to Haiti with PFH.  Each mission trip seems to touch me in a different way.  This last one was no different…. One of our interpreters told us they thought an epidemic was occurring in a certain mountain community and asked for a doctor to come help. After Guiga
