Description
"Up against centuries of oppression, an unforgiving mountainous environment, decimated natural resources, and a centralized state government that offers little or no development assistance to rural communities, the people of Fondwa, Haiti have taken matters into their own hands... Leaders and dreamers and dedicated workers. Haitians, Cubans, Americans and French - all pitching in for a better tomorrow."

$10 pre-sale (http://roadtofondwa.eventbrite.com) or $15 at door. Proceeds to benefit the University of Fondwa.

"So often we only see the unfortunate tragedies of Haiti. The Road to Fondwa brings to light the incredible spirit of the Haitian people. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone."
