I am just back from Haiti where I volunteered at St. Damien’s Pediatric Hospital which serves the the poorest of the poor.
One of the patients is Peterson, a boy who lives at St. Damien’s because he is chained to an oxygen concentrator. It’s a big machine which needs to stay plugged into electricity.
JANERA’s recent event, “Haiti’s Reconstruction & the Geopolitical Implications of a Permanent U.S. Presence,” buzzed with curiosity, invested interest, heartfelt concern and a commitment to rebuilding the earthquake-devastated country.
