Typhooned!

Last week I followed Medical Teams International into Tacloban, Philippines to see the aftermath Super Typhoon Haiyan (Yolanda), commonly accepted now as the strongest and most intense storm ever to make landfall. Yes, it was bad. Thank God for folks like MTI who are on the ground providing care.

Iraq and Lebanon

In late September/early October I went to witness the realities of Syrian refugees in Iraq and Lebanon with Medical Teams International. I loved seeing MTI’s work in the field. And I cherished the time I spent with the refugees.

World Relief Africa

This August I followed World Relief to Rwanda, the Democratic Republic of Congo and Burundi to photograph their work there. It was a wonderful trip with good friends. I believe in this organization. I hope that you will join what they are doing to stand for the vulnerable around the world.
