                    <description><![CDATA[We just got back from an amazing trip to Haiti to document the goings-on of a school down there funded by an American professor. It was such a great experience, and such a beautiful country, but also an eye-opener. I've never seen poverty like that. I will never take what I have for granted again - like my education (I used to dread going to school everyday..some people I met in Haiti had never even held a pencil before), my president (as wrong as he may be sometimes), my garbageman ( I never have to worry about my city's garbage lining the streets), my electricity and running water (who knew that this was such a luxury?), or even gas prices (we paid $13 US for a gallon of gas in a plastic jug...the stations were out of gas completely).<br />
<br />
We will be putting together some videos for Dr. Reynolds to use to raise money and awareness for the kids down there who so desperately need help, as well as for a project called Vanilla that will be serving as a means of sustainable income for the families that participate. I hope what we do can be used to help the country of Haiti get back on the feet. Check out our blog for more stories and photos at www.bedouinsinternational.org/blog. If you want to be on our mailing list to keep up to date with what we're doing (and get info on when projects like this one are finished) then e-mail jessi@bedouinsinternational.org with your name and e-mail address.
