Day 58 – The story

March 16th, 2010

We got invited to an event tonight by Canadian Journalism Foundation. (Thank you for inviting us!) “Stories from Haiti: A Round Table Discussion with Reporters Who Were There” featured four journalists who filed stories and took pictures on the ground in Haiti. The experience and the assignment would probably stay with them for a long time. Yes, there are varying views on the state of the media today, but it is the media that helped us understand what was going on in Haiti, put things into perspective, and become involved and motivated.

As we draw closer to the end of our 60-day adventure, we wonder how the legacy of the Haitian relief efforts will shape up in coming years. Would all of the interest and aid efforts, including our own, end up simply being one of many stories of the humanity? Are Haitians able to make the most of everything? In 5 years from now, what will we say about the earthquake, the aftermath and the legacy?

Tomorrow is Day 59. Our donation page is still open. There’s still time for you to help us get one step closer to the target!

"I needed photos of myself for my business website and TW4H put me in touch with a great photographer. Elliot really put me at ease during the shoot and the result is photos that are probably the best photos I've ever had of myself. Thanks."
