David Williamson and his wife, Jamalyn, work for Family Health Ministries, a nonprofit organization based in Durham, North Carolina, which has been working in Haiti since 1993.
To call Fondwa a village is misleading. It has no central point of organization or population density. It is defined by a road that snakes through a valley 40 miles southwest of Port au Prince. Scattered along the road are a Catholic church, a number of Protestant churches, a school and an international guesthouse that also contains the region’s sole clinic.
