Check out this article featured on Boston.com about the generous and motivated students at Dorchester Academy who sold ribbons to raise funds for The Life is good Playmakers’ work in Haiti. The article features our very own Ant Toombs, who visited the students to thank them for their support. After sharing our Playmaker philosophy and theoretical framework with these inspiring students, Ant updated them on our Haiti Initiative as well:
The team is back from their most recent trip to Haiti and we’d love to share some of their experience with you, our friends, family, and fellow Playmakers. Take a look at the short, inspiring video capturing the remarkable collaboration between our local partner, AMURT Haiti and our team, as we held a four-day Playmaker Training Retreat for a group of 30 Haitian youth workers. Its purpose was to further develop and strengthen their abilities to bring healing play to the thousands of children they work with every day in tent cities and orphanages.
Steve will be leaving again next week to visit with the Playmakers and Haiti and provide follow-up support. As always, we’ll keep you posted about the trip!
