Nine University of Maine at Augusta students spent their spring break volunteering at the Real Hope for Haiti’s Center for Malnourished Children last week. Since this was the UMA Biology program’s sixth service trip to Casale, Haiti, they went prepared with 1,000 pounds of donations including medical supplies, school supplies, clothing, pillowcase dresses made by three local churches, layette kits, birthing kits, backpacks with school supplies, gift bags for 160 children, soccer balls donated by Kents Hill School, shoes, vitamins and more.
