Hello Loved Ones!
So as many of you may know, this year I have had the wonderful privilege of attending Brigham Young University. Out of all the wonderful programs offered and causes supported, I have been drawn to one in particular. "Sustain Haiti" is a non-profit organization that sends students down to Haiti each summer for six week increments to teach different skills to better the lives of the Haitian people. They focus on the areas of agriculture, english language, and public health, and I have been invited to go to Haiti this summer to assist in the teaching of public health. I am absolutely ecstatic to have an opportunity to be a part of such a worthy and wonderful cause, and one that has been close to my heart from the time I was in seventh grade. 
In order to fund such a trip I have been actively raising money over the last few months and have been extremely blessed by the generosity of many friends, family members, ward members, former teachers, etc. As a small repayment for the money and time you have invested in me and this cause that is so dear to my heart, I decided to start a blog to keep everyone updated on my progress, preparation and eventual pilgrimage to serve in Haiti. 
I so appreciate the love and the support you show me and I hope that you enjoy getting to see a taste of what all is going into the trip that you have so generously been willing to contribute funds to!  
Thank you, thank you, thank you! 
Much Love,
Rhiannon Archbold
