This time next week, I will be in Port au Prince. I will be there for 5 days with Kids Against Hunger, documenting as they give out food and clean water. This organization has delivered nutritious meals to over 60 countries since it was founded [1999], with over 10 million meals delivered to Haiti since the devastating earthquake. While there we will also visit some of their churches and orphanages. This will be quite an experience, as I have not been out of the country in almost 15 years. Also, Haiti is what's considered an LDC, or Least Developed Country, which ranks it below the standards of the 3rd-world classification. The average native lives on about $50USD per month.
If you would like to donate to a trusted company (tax-deductible), check out the Kids Against Hunger website.
