Haiti: One Year After
Posted by timfrakes | Filed under Carribean, Disaster, Education, Faith Based Production, Interesting Places, Peace and Justice, Tim Frakes Productions, Travel
The first days of 2011 find me returning to Haiti, exactly one year after the January 2010 earthquake that killed a reported 230,000 people and left tens of thousands more hurt and homeless. This trip, I will be working with a communications team from Church World Service. Church World Service works with partners in the U.S. and around the world to build interfaith and intercultural coalitions to eradicate hunger and poverty and promote peace and justice.
We plan to record footage for videos relating to sustainable development. It is a great honor to be asked to be part of this team. I believe that finding ways to address Haiti’s immediate and long term needs is important work.

Raise Your Voice

This is a music video in support of CROP Hunger Walks. Music by singer/songwriter K.C. Clifford. Following the January 2010 earthquakes in Haiti, I recorded footage that Church World Service used in this video. I even noticed a shot that Jim Quattrocki and I recorded in Tanzania more than a decade ago. Great to see this stuff put to good use!
