These gentlemen were building a detached kitchen at an orphanage in Haiti. Prior to the construction all the cooking was done in a small space outside between the house and the bathroom. Even though it was hard work done under challenging conditions with minimal tools there was no grumbling. They seemed to know their labors would make life better for the cooks and the kids they served.
No matter where I've traveled it seems there is a universality to deriving a sense of accomplishment from helping others and being a part of something bigger than one's self. I was blessed to be present while they worked and grateful they were willing subjects.
