Haiti Partner Speaking at Wheaton College

I know many of you have done much to help Haiti, IMN School, Schools Count Corp, Kids4Good, and other charities since the January 2010 earthquake. I just wanted to alert everyone to the fact that one of the co-directors, Kent Annan, of Haiti Partners (who we have worked with extensively) will speak at Wheaton College tomorrow, Thursday, March 31 at 7:00. Sadly, I don't have a building location of the lecture but the campus is pretty compact so I don't think you will have a hard time finding the location of the presentation.

Kent has done much to aid Haitians over the past years and I think you will find his words to be inspiring and hopeful. Below is a brief bio on Kent that you may find useful.

Kent Annan is co-director of Haiti Partners, a nonprofit focused on helping Haitians change Haiti through education and leadership. He is also the author of Following Jesus through the Eye of the Needle and, most recently, After Shock: Searching for Honest Faith When Your World is Shaken which was written in response to the Haiti Earthquake. After living in Haiti for two and a half years, he now travels there regularly from Florida. He worked for almost three years with refugee ministries in Western Europe, Albania, and Kosovo. He graduated from Princeton Theological Seminary. Kent is married to Shelly, and they have two young children.

I hope you can make the presentation!!

Thanks,
Dick
