Degrassi in Haiti: Annie Clark’s Story

December 26th, 2011

Holly J., Fiona, The Bhandaris, Eli, Clare and all the rest of the Degrassi students have ditched their uniforms, packed their bags, and left their drama in the halls of Degrassi to make new halls for kids in Haiti.

Check out exclusive content from Degrassi in Haiti that you won’t find anywhere else!

Don’t miss Degrassi In Haiti as part of MuchMusic’s Holiday Wrap, airing December 30th at 6PM ET exclusively on MuchMusic!

The cast of Degrassi is helping to create a brand new school in Haiti and we’ve got it all documented right here on MuchMusic! Aptly named Degrassi In Haiti, the special follows all your favourite Degrassi actors as they encounter the heat, sweat, tears, fears and unforgettable experiences while creating something truly special for kids less fortunate.

And there’s more…

They wanted to let you know what that experience meant for them. Stuff you won’t find in the special! We asked five fun (and poignant!) questions about the best moments of the trip. Find out what Annie Clark had to say about her time in Haiti!

1. What is one essential item you packed for your trip?

Granola bars – I got so hungry just before bed!

2. What is one thing you learned about another cast member?

I learned that Jess has the most powerful, blood-curdling scream I’ve ever heard!

3. Who is the best travel partner?

Charlotte has always been the best travel buddy. She calms me down when there’s turbulence on the plane!

4. What was your most important moment on the trip?

The most important moment for me was teaching a little girl how to hold a crayon and colour in a picture. She was so proud to show me.

5. How do you describe Haiti and your trip to friends?

I tell them that Haiti was beautiful, eye-opening, and very different from what I expected.
