Welcome to the Will in Haiti site.  Please explore the site to learn about what I’m doing in Haiti, what needs to be done, what can be done, and how you can help.  I am a recent graduate from Brown University and I am currently enrolled in Brown Medical School, class of 2013.


The world-wide response to Haiti is phenomenal. While it goes without saying, it is horrendous that it has taken such a disaster to bring what has been the poorest country in this hemisphere for over a century, back into the world's sight. This is our chance to truly change the course of this country. It will not be good enough to simply rebuild what has collapsed, bandage the wounded and bury the dead. This world-wide effort to help Haiti must be greater than repair. This is our chance to save Haiti, to build an infrastructure, to pull Haiti from its chains of absolute poverty, to develop a system for potable water, to bring health care, food, clothing and safety into the lives of a people whose human rights have been forgotten. While we may have lost 215,000 from this disaster, there are still 9 million lives left to save.
