Change in Haiti is a daunting but exciting possibility when you work together. This was the topic during our recent Partners Retreat held in Vero Beach. A Haitian proverb says: Men anpil chay pa lou. “Many hands make the load lighter.”

On April 26-27, over 50 friends of Haiti Partners landed in Vero Beach from across the U.S., Canada, and Haiti to “Connect for Change.” Participants heard short, TED Talk-style presentations from Americans and Haitians. Everyone participated in open discussions. The connection of our social and spiritual lives addressed. There is a lot of collaboration ahead!

With activities on the beach, wonderful food, and great people, the Partners Retreat was informative and fun. Mark your calendars now for the 4th annual Partners Retreat to be held in Vero Beach on April 25-26, 2014. For additional information, contact us at 772-539-8521 or info@haitipartners.org.
