Mavericks Impact Haiti… For the 2nd Time

February 27, 2012 by Yanik

How was this year’s Maverick IMPACT Haiti trip?

Words fail for some experiences—but I’ll toss out: “Eye opening; Heart melting; Inspiring; Motivating; Perspective Shaking and Hope-filled.” Last month, I had the fortune of joining the Maverick IMPACT Haiti trip last-second, and could go on forever about what I experienced there. Driving around, I kept imagining how this land—with her stunning white sand beaches and turquoise waters lining vast, desolate hills dotted with dingy tents and bony goats—was once a lushly forested paradise nicknamed “The Pearl of the Antilles.”

But the sheer scope of the white smiles that greeted us through the rubble—and seeing the homes and schools rising up from it all—gave me a very tangible hope that someday, maybe in my lifetime, Haiti may reclaim herself and emerge as the gem she once was.

What inspired me most was the delight on the faces of everyone who visited last year, who completely blown away at how much progress occurred in such a short time. Pretty powerful to witness the impact first-hand of foundations like Caring House Foundation and Hope to Haiti, and the other “Maverick-minded” groups who help bring richness back to hurting areas.

 

The best way for you to share this experience is to come on a little photo journey now, compliments of Maverick1000 Member #35 Doug Doebler (aka: Professor Beach).

Check out this wonderful Story Page he created. I promise it will take you places.
