a Canadian perspective

Hey out there back home in Min. this is my first time with Team Minnesota; they are hard working, fun loving and very coordinated. I'm with Team Canada, and there is no comparison, of course, but I'm impressed anyway 'cause Canadians are so polite and these guys know about snow so we are family. There is a lot happening on this mission. The team is deploying to orphanages and hospitals and manning the clinic. Several members are preparing for an add-on mission to the DR for a P&O conference. In addition, my colleagues from 'head office', Lisa Stein (International Manger) and Jim Stein (Executive Director) are meeting with the admin staff to work on making accounting and clinic reporting systems more transparent and effective and developing fund raising schemes .We are also interviewing candidates for the new Manager of Operations, (Haiti) position. Yes, we are losing Cadet, our tried and true Executive Director these past two years. But change is what we have come to accept and it's onwards to make the 10th anniversary year of HHH a memorable one. Congratulations HHH and our appreciation to all our donors, supporters and volunteers for 10 years of hard, generous work.

Oh ya, for every Minn. blogger who sends a post or blogs in from back home, Team Canada (the best) will donate, let me think... 10 minutes of Haitian cell phone time so you guys can call home when you get lonely.

Eric (go team Canada)
Marketing Director
