The Faces of Helplessness

Author Tracy Kidder wrote a phenomenonal book some years ago, entitled "Mountains Beyond Mountains".  The book documents 20+ years of work of Dr. Paul Farmer in Haiti.  Dr. Farmer is the founder of Partners In Health. 

It is a worthy cause that needs our support.  Here is a link to a slide show showing the work that is being done and the faces of helplessness:

If you can do anything in this moment, it is to give of what you have.  The saying I love to remind myself as well as you is to give from with your right-hand, meanwhile your left-hand has no idea how much and what you gave.  This, to me is the true spirit of giving!  May you get back double, or triple what you gave.
