Alan Schneider Undertakes Assessment Mission to Haiti...Nine months after the devastating Haiti earthquake, B'nai B'rith World Center Director Alan Schneider visited the country this week to assess the progress of development projects funded by B'nai B'rith International and B'nai B'rith Europe.
This was Schneider's second trip to Haiti since one of the worst natural disasters in history struck this Caribbean country-the first beginning just four days after the quake when he arrived with a small Israeli emergency civilian medical team that provided primary care to some 2,000 injured Haitians. The emergency medical team and the ongoing development projects are coordinated by BBI's strategic partner in international humanitarian work-IsraAID-the Israel Forum for International Humanitarian Aid.
