Tracy Kidder is a journalist I greatly admire. His book, Mountains Beyond Mountains, chronicles Paul Farmer and his Partners in Health organization, which has twenty years of service experience in Haiti. There is an old Haitian proverb of “Beyond mountains there are mountains”—as you solve one problem, another problem presents itself, and so you go on and try to solve that one too.
Haiti has no shortage of mountainous problems. Please support Partners in Health's efforts by clicking through to their Stand with Haiti link and donating what you can.
