About Susan:
More About MeFor more than a decade, Susan Scott Krabacher has dedicated her life to the well-being of abandoned and impoverished children in Haiti. Traveling through the poorest areas of this country which are plagued with violence and disease, Krabacher, with the support and assistance of her husband, Joe, was moved to start her first orphanage in 1994. From this she founded the Mercy and Sharing organization, which she established to better the quality of life for Haitian children. Since the beginning, Krabacher's compassion was unyielding to the threats of peril such as civil unrest, gangs, and devastating living conditions. And, because she wanted to identify with the children whose lives were haunted by these dangers every day, she chose to spend her first days in Haiti in downtown Cite de Soleil, one of the most dangerous slums of Port au Prince. Krabacher spends six months of every year working in Haiti on behalf of children, and, every time, she must hire personal security guards to accompany her. The other six months she spends contributing to the functions of Mercy and Sharing from her home in Colorado, ensuring that the children are provided with quality medical care and living conditions as well as the opportunity to obtain a home and family of their own through adoption. Throughout the year, Krabacher delivers numerous presentations to spread awareness and generate support for Mercy and Sharing. Additionally, she and her husband are creating an endowment for the ongoing, long-term support of these children, contributing an annual amount of over $100, 000 of their own income. Krabacher has not only come to aid six thousand children over the years, but has also made great strides to develop effective relationships with the Haitian people. Her compassion and determination has gained the respect of those in power and the kinship of those in poverty, particularly the children who call her Mama Blanche.
