Just a quick note to let everyone know that we have made it to Leogane safely. There were a few moments at the airport and on the drive here that were questionable, but sure enough, we are doing fine! I hope to be posting pictures during the week.
Today, we arrived in Leogane around 2pm. We spent the day setting up the clinic, packaging vitamins and other medications that will be handed out to patients throughout the week, setting up tents on the roof that some of us will be sleeping in, and enjoying meeting each other!
I think that I can speak for everyone in saying that we are very glad to be here and offer any help that we can. There is obviously a lot of devastation everywhere we look. It was overwhelming on the drive from PAP to Leogane to see the extent of the damage. I expect to learn a lot this week from everyone, and hopefully we'll all be able to keep friends and family updated throughout the week!
