We Are For Good

Meet Dr. Behrtrude Albert. Following a humbling trip to her native Haiti, she learned a valuable lesson: ask before you aid. Alongside her partner, they founded P4H Global and are revolutionizing the way education is delivered in Haiti by training teachers. “We don’t have what Haiti needs…but they do. Invest in their capacity then get out of the way to watch them transform their nation.” Boom! 🎤💥
