The Look
Walking around the property Caring 4 Haiti has purchased to build the Dream Center, we are besieged by barefoot children. The ground is covered in thorns and cactus sprout up between the grasses. Barbed wire that once marked a property line is intertwined with the overgrowth, the children seem oblivious to this. Their legs and feet are calloused and and blood seems to flow freely from cuts and scrapes, but they carry on nonetheless.
I stop and look at one of the children and as I raise my camera he looks right into my eyes, I can still remember the overwhelming feeling as the shutter open and closed several times.
These are the children we will be helping when we return to Ounaminthe, and finish the Dream Center.
