Des nouveaux yeux – Haiti revisité
Mon premier voyage en Haiti m'a bien marqué. Ça m'a donné l'envie de retourner travailler là-bas et partager plus profondement avec les gens. Quelques mois après, quand nous nous sommes rendus comptes qu'on n'avançait pas avec la subvention de fonds pour notre cours de permaculture en Haiti, j'ai décidé de lever des fonds moi même. Cette fois, je cherchais une petite ONG qui partageait les mêmes valeurs que les miennes et qui avait déjà mis en place des projets 'grassroots' que je voulais soutenir.
A Drop in an Ocean and Sowing Seeds
By this time next week, my plan is to have given two 5-day trainings; trained over 40 teacher-trainers, community animators, and agronomists from three organisations and five sites; and coached three teams on their projects using permaculture design. It's been a full few weeks.
Choice is Power – Lessons from Cité Soleil
What stands out for me in these last two weeks in Haiti is the people. I'm reminded that, in any life circumstance, we have choice in how we live and how we meet the world. Dr. Viktor Frankl, a psychiatrist who survived the Holocaust, wrote about how people found freedom, choice and meaning even in the concentration camps. He wrote about men in the camps who walked around comforting others and gave away their last pieces of bread. I've met people like this here; to me they are everyday heros.
Language as a Problem and a Solution, Culture as an Edge
I had expected that the language difference (me speaking French and not Creole) would be a challenge for me in giving trainings and facilitating groups here. I accepted that this would be a learning edge for me, which would push me to find new and creative ways to facilitate people's learning process.
Teaching and Volunteering in Haiti
I have deep gratitude in my heart to all of you for supporting me with my initiative in Haiti and for helping to make this possible through your donations, helping to spread the word, and sending positive energy. As I prepare for this trip, I have a sense of being in touch with the oneness of our humanity.
Haiti... A Journey of Contrasts
My first trip to Haiti last May was a journey of stark contrasts; the best I could do was breathe deeply, and bring my heart and mind fully to the work at hand. I am noticing the contrasts again today. We've raised over $8300 for my volunteer projects in Haiti (as of January 28). I am in awe that we're $3000 over my original fundraising goal and that support has continued to flow. And, as I read about Haiti tonight, I realise the enormity and scale of transformation that is needed. In the same breath, I am present with my gratitude and my sorrow.
Haiti Fundraising Update
We've raised over $4000 - getting close to the goal of $5300! I'm so grateful for all the support :) (A number of donations came by cheque and Interac, and unfortunately, they don't show up in the red box.)
DONATIONS & TAX RECEIPTS
If you would like to make a donation, any amount is appreciated.
Going Back to Haiti - Request for Support
WHAT I PLAN TO DO IN HAITI
I plan on going back to Haiti for 5 weeks in January and volunteering with two organisations, AMURT in Port-au-Prince and Noramise in the North; I am fundraising to make this work possible. At the heart of this, is my desire to support the rebuilding of Haiti, based on a vision of sustainable development that takes care of people and the land.
