community Mobilization

Samaritan's Heart's goal is to persue community developement in the very remote comminities in Haiti. For example: Dinise

The executive director of Samaritan's Heart started meeting with the people in the community to cast vision. Our goal is to open their eyes on the problems of the community and let them reflect about how to solve these problems. In the very first meeting, they identify some of their problems and arrange them by priority. It was amazing to see people who are so isolated and harmed by the poverty they are seen even not being able to get any idea of what is happening around them. And they could identify the very needs of the community and talking about what they can do, not the government, to get these problems solved.

Other meetings are planned for the very next time I will visit this community. I just can't wait to go back and meet with these precious people.
