Kids helping Kids - Annabella (10) travels to Haiti and the Dominican Republic with VA.
Posted April 09, 2009 at 10:22 AM

I am here in the Dominican Republic with Vitamin Angels and UNFI. We are going to make one distribution today in Mercedes and a visit to Haiti. Yesterday I went to the Barrio Maria Montez in Barahona where we saw about 100 kids who were all in need of vitamins. The vitamins prevent blindness and parasites in children. There were one-room houses and barely any furniture, but the country I visited today is much poorer than the Dominican Republic. The kids there looked shocked to see Americans. I also saw kids filling up water bottles to drink from an unfiltered river. I am glad I can do something for these kids.
