I’m still full-steam on getting to Haiti to help, but the more ideal, likely time-frame for traveling and volunteering would probably be around the end of the school year when summer break is just getting started. Spring break is approaching very quickly – too fast to really get a solid plan rolled out. Plus, in two months highly-qualified volunteers with more critical skills will still be the most needed individuals on scene. Perhaps by summer more volunteer organizations will be established and a relatively smooth program will allow people like me to lend a hand without hampering relief efforts.
But, I’m still working with my classmate to get something figured out. We are considering meeting up somewhere and sometime to discuss our options. Plus, I retrieved my passport and discovered that it is still valid through September of this year.
