Introduction of the Haiti trip 2019!

Hello everyone! We are extremely excited to start our journey to Haiti in 2019! We will be traveling from March 2nd to March 10th and can't wait to share in this journey with you. 

We are currently preparing for the trip with the group by learning more about how Haiti started, the Haitian Revolution, and the relationship between Haiti and the Dominican Republic. We will also explore the Just Haiti coffee corporation and learn more about where we will be spending our week! 

The leaders this year are Melissa Bronder and Rachel Nye, who are both so excited to share in this growth experience with their group members and learn alongside them about poverty, fair-trade economics, and integral human development. 

Melissa is a Sophomore Psychology major who has previously traveled to Haiti on the ABST trip last year and Rachel is a fourth-year PA student who has led the trips to Ruskin, Florida and Detroit,  MI and attended the ABST to Washington, DC!

We encourage you to stay in touch with the blog as we continue to update you on our journey!

With love,

Rachel and Melissa
