Wow, the Haiti team filled-up fast!
We haven't stopped to count, but we received an enormous response to our plea for volunteers for the Haiti trip. It's humbling to see so many people who want to help.

About Me
I first started volunteering with Habitat in the early 1990s.
In 1994, I took what was supposed to be a three-year sabbatical from my career (a newspaper artist at the Chicago Tribune) and moved to the Dominican Republic to volunteer, managing a Habitat affiliate not far from the border of Haiti. When those three years were up, I didn't return to my career - I stayed in Latin America and continued to support Habitat for Humanity. Since then, I've worked with the organization full-time in a number of different capacities, located in a number of different countries.
Currently I work in the Latin American/Caribbean area office, located in San Jose, Costa Rica.
