Seventy-year-old Rosette Louis lost everything she owned when her rented house collapsed in the devastating January 2010 earthquake. Since then, she and three of her four grown children have shared a small tent in Leogane’s Santo community. In November, Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project volunteers built alongside Louis and 99 other families, constructing houses and renewing a community’s hope together.
