The Foundation brings groups of individuals on trips to Haiti to experience life in the third world. We offer 6-day Immersion Trips, 8 to 10-day Work Retreats, and a variety of Medical Trips. Participants come from all walks of life and help in whatever way they can, sharing knowledge, goods, service, and experience with the poor. They also serve a vital role in transporting supplies to the hospital from the U.S.

Each trip is different, depending on the interests and skills of the participants. Some groups are focused on hospital support, others on educational and community projects, but always the emphasis is on experiencing Haitian life, on reflection and the sharing of impressions and discoveries. Participants from every walk of life are welcome. We live simply in Haiti, dormitory style, in clean quarters at the hospital. Communal meals are simple and wholesome. Water for washing etc. is often scarce. We drink bottled water only. In addition to work days, time is set aside for excursions into the countryside. The drive from the capital to the mountain village of Fond des Blancs averages about five hours, over roads that are often severely eroded.
