Here are just a few of the moving testimonials from their site:
Forever. I know that this is a big statement and how can seven days in one place ultimately transform who you are for the rest of your life? In these seven days, I have been trying to answer that question, trying to find resolution in what took place, what I saw and what I discovered about myself...There is a part of me, deep down, that has shifted. A part of me that I never knew really existed until now, or if it did, it was buried in a place where I was to afraid to recognize my need for self discovery. When a door opens in your life and you are too afraid to walk through it, you dont get to experience the profound possibilities of what is waiting for you. Haiti was waiting for me, God knew this a long time ago, He was preparing me for a time in my life that He knew I would be the most effective, when my heart was ready, when my mind was clear, and when everything I received from my experience would be used for change."
-Nicole Wolf, Photographer , Washington DC
"I arrived in Haiti somewhat concerned about safety issues for myself and our group. Within one day I had no such concerns. By the end of the week, I felt that I had been given the opportunity of a lifetime. The Haitian people were nothing but kind, welcoming and a joy to spend time with. The lessons from their loving, positive attitude towards life have changed my life forever."
-Erick MD New York, NY
"I don't know when I'll be going back, but I know that, if I can, I will. It has been the greatest experience of my life; I didn't expect to help at all, but I feel that in some small way, I was able to make a difference in the lives of the impoverished people of Haiti, as were the other wonderful people that came with NRI. I am eternally grateful to them and the people of Haiti."
-Jordan French New York, NY
"Haiti was the poorest nation in the western hemisphere before that fateful day in January of 2010. Now it is not only the poorest, but the most determined and resilient, at least from my perspective. Another interesting word; perspective, something I gained a new understanding of during the last week of my life."
-Christina Mavinic RN Vancouver, BC
I felt very safe in Haiti at all times. Under NRI's experienced guidance and advice, our group was able to complete our mission without incident or risk to our health or safety.
