2012

From May 19-27, 2012, thirteen Duke alumni and friends will travel to Port au Prince, Haiti, for a week of service with Family Health Ministries, an NGO whose mission is to assist Haitian communities in their efforts to build and sustain healthy families.

This is our second trip with Family Health Ministries. The team will spend their week assisting in a medical clinic in Blanchard, just outside of Port-au-Prince. Kathy Walmer, Executive Director of Family Health Ministries and adjunct professor at the Duke Global Health Institute, and Hardy Vieux '93, DAA Board President, will be leading the group again this year.

Please check back often for their messages and updates during their time in Haiti.
