During a time of great turmoil and chaos, there were a select few who stopped to give everything they had. Despite heartbreak, despite a lack food, water, or shelter, despite sorely inadequate supplies, they saved lives. These are the stories of the Nurses of Léogâne, Haiti. 

Michele Sare of Nurses for Nurses International arrived less than an hour before the January 12th earthquake hit Haiti and stayed to work at an impromptu emergency clinic set up on lawn surrounding the FSIL School of Nursing in Léogâne where she met true heroes. 

After five days of working with dwindling resources and almost running out of water, news crews, Doctors without Borders, and the UN finally realized the severity of destruction in Léogâne and arrived with supplies and help. Sare, per the US Government’s policy, returned to the US and began writing down the stories of the people, which you can read in this testimony section of the Hope for Haiti's Nurses Project. 

This is for the people of Haiti, so that the world can know what they have sacrificed and what they have done.
