Ole Miss Football Team Returning To Haiti this week

Via OleMissSports.com:

For the third straight Ole Miss spring break, members of the Rebel football program will spend their precious week off from class, workouts, practice and film sessions doing mission work in Haiti.

A 28-person group will take the trip from Oxford to Camp Marie, Haiti, to continue their work to create a sustainable community for Haitians in need. Now that the village of 10,000 Haitians has access to clean water (which the Ole Miss team helped to start last year), there is a need to further the water into their crop areas. These once fertile grounds have been devastated by severe drought, and the team of players, coaches, staff and family will assist local farmers in digging trenches for better irrigation.
