Ribert Pierre & Amy Arutt, a story of kindness


If you've been following this blog, you know that Amy Arutt, in Connecticut, has been trying to connect with her friend Ribert Pierre here in Carrefour. He was homeless on the street following the quake and is still living on the street with his father and his wife and a 14 year old sister. None has work except Ribert who is now a much-belovèd translator at our clinic.


Amy put together two tubs and a large suitcase of supplies for Ribert and his family. Unfortunately, they were among those stuck in SD. They arrived on the bus yesterday and are sitting outside my tent. This afternoon, Luc, Ribert, and I will put them in the truck and get them to his spot on the street. 


Amy's kindness is eclipsed only by Ribert's appreciation.
