Even before the earthquake, conditions in Haiti were quite desperate. Just behind our hotel in Port-au-Prince, we visited a creek bed. Just above this area it was clear that this valley was used as the neighborhood trash dump. Pigs and goats fed on the trash.
As terrible as that was, nothing prepared us for this: animals using the same creeks that Haitians drink from everyday. When you live in the city and don’t have access to water in Haiti you either get water from a water truck or scavenge it from open water sources like this one.
About the Clip of Day
Field visits over the past year have allowed us to document the lives and struggles of the people we work for. You may recognize some of the clips from our longer videos, but we wanted to share some of these impactful experiences uncut. Without narrative and music, you can feel as if you were with us in these communities. If you love ‘em, share the link with a friend. If you feel moved, consider a $25 donation that brings safe water to one person for the rest of their life.
