June 3, 2013 Haitian Heroes

 “Heroes are made by the path they choose, not the powers they are graced with.”
      from Haitian Heroes website

Gallery, New York City
I came upon a  large scale photo exhibition in New York City on Central Park West yesterday. I was drawn to the pictures of children with colorful clothing, smiling brightly while the background is filled with drab and dusty images. Each photo is accompanied by a personal story of difficulty, but continued hope for a better future. This is part of the Haitian Heroes project which is an organization whose goal is to reconstruct schools in this country because, as we know, education is the key to unlock the potential these youngsters possess. I made a small donation to this group and encourage you to check out their website at www.haitianheroes.org.
