Synopsis
To Fool the Rain thoughtfully chronicles Steven Werlin’s journey with Fonkoze, but it is also the story of Fonkoze itself.
Presented in vivid detail are the lived experiences of Mirlene, Micheline, Ti Rizib, Monique, Rose Marthe, Alta, and other Chemen Lavi Miyò participants, who have benefited in many ways from this remarkable program. As Werlin makes clear in To Fool the Rain, there is no single pathway to a better life. The stories of each of these women are the stories of Fonkoze: individual beginnings, challenges, and successes bound together by the themes that pattern life in rural Haiti.
Lacking social safety nets, the poor in Haiti and elsewhere face ongoing and catastrophic cycles of poverty and disease. Fonkoze’s pioneering work in solidarity with Haiti’s poor has been a crucial step in disrupting such cycles. Fonkoze’s model, particularly its Chemen Lavi Miyò program, offers a path to security and hope for marginalized women. – From the Foreword by Dr. Paul Farmer

From the Author
"The existence of extreme poverty is unconscionable. On one hand, ultra poor people around the world live miserable lives. On the other, theirs is a problem with a proven solution. I encourage people to read the book to look boldly at both sides." -Steven Werlin, Author of To Fool the Rain
From the Back Cover
"Werlin reminds us that the work of human development is ultimately about humans, and that we in government or the international aid community, in order to be more effective, must know and communicate with the people we aim to serve." -Gérald Oriol, Jr., Haiti's Secretary of State for the Integration of Persons with Disabilities
