A Day in the Life of RMI

Today, like most every other day on the field, RMI was hard at work.

Here are some images from the depot yard just this morning!

At one end of the depot yard:

The Grace Homes for Haiti team is here and working on assembling some new panels for the new set of houses to be installed. They have set out the tools and the plans for the project:

Here they work on some new fixtures which are being measured and assembled.

Later in the afternoon there was a meeting with the leadership team and Kim down at the Thompson’s House:

On the roof of their depot:

Kim makes his point, using a stand in white board (legal pad) and marker (ink pen). In Haiti, that’s what you call ‘degaje’ing it, which roughly translated means “making do” or
“rolling with it and making it work”

Today was a busy day and much was accomplished. Looking forward to the activities tomorrow holds on store!
