About Our Trip

The Austin team will be working to help finish one of the schools for the start of the school year, scout out potential sites for new schools to be built, investigate possibilities for new economic development ventures, and begin building relationships between the people of Haiti and folks here in Austin. In the wake of last January’s earthquake, Haiti needs this kind of stable infrastructure more than ever.
