A Little Piece of My Heart

When Joanne Schafer first traveled to Haiti in 1984, she left behind a little piece of her heart. A decade later she founded Haitian Education and Literacy Program (H.E.L.P.), a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides schools and educational materials for the poorest of the poor in Haiti's central plateau. Based on 20 years of personal journals, A Little Piece of my Heart tells the story of Haiti through Joanne's eyes. All proceeds from book purchases go to H.E.L.P.
