Global Nomads Group hosted a videoconference in early February titled Haiti:  Earthquake Relief.  CITVC was a view-only location for this videoconference; we sent in our questions via e-mail and some of them were addressed.  Patrick Solomon, Senior Vice President of Global Support Services of CARE USA was the expert on hand to address the current situation on the ground in Haiti.  We also listened to Haitian-American students from South Plantation High School, Florida, as they told their stories of how their families were affected.

"CITVC wants to extend our care and support to the recently arrived Haitian students at South Plantation High School.  We appreciate your time and your strength to share such a tragic experience with your peers here in Little Falls, New Jersey."  -CITVC
