FAQ
Q: How is the money I send in or donated being spent?
A: 60% will be used for buying building & health supplies for the
community we will be working in, 25% will go towards your trip
expenses and survival supplies (airfare, water, food, first aid, etc.),
15% goes towards Anir support (travel and life support for team
leaders)

A: NO! For your own safety.
Q: May I take photos of animals & landscape?
A: Yes, all you want
Q: May I take photos of the local people?
A: It is best to ask permission first, ask your team leader
Q: Is this trip safe?
A: Traveling anywhere (even to the store) has its risk, but this trip has
various serious risks. It is a disaster zone with chance of another
quake. There has always been a very high crime rate both petty and
violent in Haiti; that is why it is of the utmost importance that the team
stay together and no one go-it on their own.

A: Yes. Tetanus, hepatitis A & hepatitis B, Typhoid Fever
Q: Will I need malaria pills?

Our planned location is not Port au Prince but the other side of the island at La Vallee de Jacmel - which CNN is not covering but has also suffered greatly and should not be forgotten...
