Who's up for a holiday in Haiti?

What are you doing with your vacation this year? Hawaii, Whistler or just relaxing on the couch? Well, I will tell who isn’t doing any this, DC’s killer project manager, Steph.

Steph and her bff of 24 yrs, Shannon, are heading to Fond Parisien, a small town just out side of Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Once off the plane they’ll be working in union with a nonprofit, Hands of Light in Action, to provide rehabilitation to the residents of the American Refugee Committee’s Camp Hope, an Internally Displaced Persons camp with approximately 2,500 displaced residents. Steph and Shannon have been hard at work fundraising donations to help cover for their airfare, food, transportation, medical evacuation insurance and massive cans ‘o bug spray. They have exceeded their goal, (applause to all you amazing contributors!) but every extra penny they receive will be devoted to purchasing art supplies for the children of the refugee camp.  If you would like to donate to the cause visit www.giveforward.org.

We all wish Steph the best of luck and lots of energy on her “holiday.”
