I did not have any preconceived ideas when I traveled the first time to Haiti right after the earthquake. For me, the idea that all foreigners are "riche" is not true. I serve at a small orphanage where paying the bills can be difficult. Yes, compared to most Haitians, Americans are better off. But many of us who serve are on limited budgets and pay our way to and from Haiti.
