Roots Research Booklet Launch

March 05, 2019

OUR BOOKLET IS FINALLY DONE! After months of research and editing, Roots has finished our booklet on Haitian culture and sustainable design. Come join us on Wednesday, March 13th, in the Kibel Gallery of the Architecture Building for our opening night. We will have physical and digital copies on display, plus presentations from the students who conducted the research and authentic Haitian food.

 

We will be accepting donations before, during, and after the event to support our summer trip to Haiti. We only need $600 more to send five students to Haiti! If you donate $35 or more, you will receive a free copy of the research booklet.

 

See the flyer below for more details.

If you have any questions feel free to email us at RootsHaA@gmail.com.

 

We hope to see you there!

Trip Update

December 20, 2018

We want to thank everyone who donated! We are more than halfway to our goal with just 9 days remaining. 

 

Unfortunately, our winter trip has been postponed due to instability in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Instead, we will either travel in March or May, pending the country's safety. Our project will remain on track as our spring design studio begins translating our research into design. 

 

That being said, WE STILL NEED YOUR HELP! Please reach out to friends and family to support our team.
