The Reason



We pulled up in a noisy van, conversations and music blaring. It got quiet almost instantly.

This is a middle class neighborhood. Almost a year later.


This is the new neighborhood we helped build. I hope it feels like home very soon for the people living here. They deserve it.

Oh Dawn, I can't believe that a year later there are still places that look like that!! Those poor souls! Thank God you are there, helping out. Thank you for the glimpse of that part of the world that many of us will never see. I hope the people can make new memories soon.
