A Fool In Haiti

One of the many vids I took of some of the children who will live at the Danthor Foundation orphanage once it is ready… The kids loved the cameras! This is filmed in a small village called Oban, about 5 miles from Jacmel in Southern Haiti. Filmed in March 2010 about 6 weeks after the earthquake that killed up to 300,000 people… Myself and Manbo Paula were there and with our $US20/day each we were able to feed about 25 people…

Hello all! I am really excited that Manbo Paula has created a website for Danthor’s Orphanage in Auban, Haiti!

Manbo Paula writes:

During my visits to Haiti I have observed and studied Haitian culture and religions
In Haitian culture Danthor represents a hard working mother with two little children of her own.
Legend tells that Danthor loves children dearly and is fiercely protective of them, this really appealed to me.
Danthor is down-to-earth and very Haitian and I decided to name the Orphanage in her honour.

Please visit and join the group and watch the great work she is doing… http://www.danthorsorphanage.org/

I filmed the last 5 minutes of our journey from Cayes-Jacmel to the new Orphanage Location in Oban, a village with 1004 residents about 10 miles outside Jacmel in Haiti. That’s me holding the camera and Manbo Paula (creator of the Danthor Foundation) on the other Motorcycle. The orphanage building is actually a disused night club (hence the amazing decor) that has been made available for the use of the Danthor Foundation.

We’re actually going to have to raise a lot of awareness to take the Orphanage to the next level and make it functional.

This is Papouche. One of LaBien’s adopted kids is always drawing birds and flowers
. I took loads of photos of his art but current bandwidth costs restricts me to s single upload at this time. He will probably be taken in to the Danthor Foundation Orphanage once it is ready
