I work at a power plant as an operator i was hired as a welder. Friend asked me few years back to go and i agreed. I grew up over seas in yemen so its easy for me to go. You go while their and have a nice place to stay.
ok so your gonna have to pass the background check and screening process before you renew ONSC for 2010
I wouldn't have thought that Yemen and Haiti are similar in culture. Having never been to either place, although a cruise I was on almost had to dock in Haiti, I don't know much about Yemen but do know a little about Haiti.

cultures are very different. Both are 3rd world. I have lived in three countrys and stopped or visited 15. My parents were missionarys. So for me it is just as easy for me to go into another country as going to the mall. Haiti I believe is poorer. People are very friendly. We usually hire natives to help for dollars a day. Ill try to post pics of last trip tomorrow. Can someone put this thread on 80 tech I dont know how to move it. I have to order a front end kit for the front and also some bushings for the lc which I have to figure out what exactly they are first,last time I got parts was from 4wheelauto in canada.
Oh I got ya.
Well ya got me beat on countries lived in 2 to 3 but I got ya beat on countries visited 20 to 15. I'd love to go to Haiti one day. How do you sign up for something like this.
I went down there to do humanitarian aid after Hurricane Georges in 98. The Haitians were the only ones that shot at us. 
My GodParents were missionarys in Haiti a couple different times, several years at a time. They still speak the "french" back and forth to each other to keep it fresh for when they visit.
Sounds like a great trip, my prayers will be with you and the others that go!!

A friend asked if I wanted to go and i said sure. The church that mainly funds the clinic is in Indiana. They have approved more trips in the future. I am just a volunteer.
