Team Rubicon Provides a Powerful New Purpose for Veterans
When a magnitude 7.0 earthquake shook Haiti on January 12, 2010, hundreds of thousands of people were killed, and nearly 1 million Haitians were rendered homeless in a matter of moments. Powerful images of the aftermath, the tent cities, the overflowing medical clinics and the food lines were broadcast across the world.
Fortunately relief efforts were fast and numerous. But two former Marine Corps sergeants, Jake Wood and William McNulty, felt particularly compelled to help. Wood and McNulty canvassed relief organizations to find a way to get to Haiti, but the aid groups repeatedly suggested that the pair simply make a donation and leave the onsite assistance to people who “know what they are doing.”
