Lehman learns many lessons during trip to Haiti

Berne Tri-Weekly News:

South Adams High School principal Trent Lehman had visited 13 countries through various mission trips prior to his trip to Haiti this past summer with the Dots in Blue Water project. While he had seen many things in different cultures, Lehman admitted that he had never seen poverty like he saw in Haiti.

"In terms of infrastructure, it's the worst I've been to," said Lehman. "India rivals it, especially in poverty, but in India we saw fast food places. There was nothing like that in Haiti, nothing like American civilization type things, no McDonalds, no Pizza Huts, no American type of influence with fast food restaurants.
