Haiti - distribution
Of all the items I brought, I thought the water purifiers and the solar oven plans were the most powerful. The solar oven plans are a scalable solution, so that if one group of Haitians learns how to use them, then others can continue to use the plans and build solar ovens from supplies readily available in-country (cardboard, aluminum foil, glue, hanger wire - to avoid having to use oven bags). Yet none of these has been distributed yet. The reason is that the current urgent needs do not include water and food, and the future needs while migrating to the countryside do. I would have liked to have tested the solar ovens before going to Haiti, but alas, Seattle isn't really the place to do it.
Junior distributed some of the food and medicine (vitamins, immodium, gauze, neosporin, antibiotic wipes, etc.) the day I left, and took some videos, which I'll post as soon as he sends them to me.
