Good work Michael.....Haiti loves you and thanks for helping us out. It's great to see that not everyone believes what we needs in Haiti is handouts, give us the tools and the opportunities and once again we will shine like the true beautiful pearl of the Caribbean we one were....Vive Haiti

Wow, i'm impress. I wish I could be there to help. It's sad it takes the white man to fix our country. All we do is criticize and saying that they only ther for the money. The questions we should ask ourselves what are we doing in our lives times for Haiti as Haitian? Basically nothing productive. Let's unite as Haitian and help haiti to become a better island for the remaining years and decade. And poverty will be something in the past for Haiti.

Haiti is so beautiful anyone who doesn't think so is because they never been there or appreciate nature's beauty

@wonderkabuse Yet what are you doing for Haiti? The people get homes and they have pride in doing this themselves for themselves. It really is something, that the ppl of Haiti leave come to America, make no money, struggle and cannot help Haiti, yet when someone extends a hand out you call them an opportunist, gilgabee66 God Bless but just like if you don't vote don't speak, if your not helping your brother shhhhh be still and thankful for God has given Favor to our brothers and sisters.

This is wonderful, for it is better to teach a man to fish and have him to eat a thousand days than to just give him a fish that has been part of the catch that day. God Bless You and all involved in this movement, Those that are quick to speak on having everyone get out of Haiti and leave them alone, I hope the day your in need God sends someone to you also. Be Blessed.

@wonderkabuse Even if he is doing it 100% for the money, if the end result is increasing the economic capacity of Jacmel, then what does it matter? At least his greed would improve Jacmel a little, whereas most people's greed only benefit themselves. Is it better to do nothing or something hoping to make himself richer? I say, more power to the greedy people who do anything at all to help out as opposed to the people who sit back and do nothing.
