I was reading the Metro Weekly article https://archive.is/hu5jg#selection-1175.88-1175.348 and came across:
"But Alefantis, who turns 40 this year, has worked in restaurants since high school, including a stint in New York working at a Bobby Flay location. Prior to opening Buck’s, he had served two years as the general manager of Johnny’s Half Shell in Dupont Circle."
When I looked up Johnny's Half Shell website https://archive.is/OzwA6 there was a recent facebook link:
"DOING THE THINGS WE WANT TO..' My college crush Elizabeth Sheehan #care2communities has been saving women in Haiti one day at a time, this week she visits the Half Shell!"
The Care 2 Communities website https://archive.is/8PiGg shows the following on their page, at bottom:
"213 4th Street East, 4th Floor #437 • St. Paul, MN 55101 • 617-559-1032 Copyright 2017 Care 2 Communities, formerly Containers 2 Clinics. All Rights Reserved."
I searched Containers 2 Clinics https://archive.is/v76V4 and found:
"Containers 2 Clinics (C2C) seeks to reduce maternal and child morbidity and mortality rates in the developing world by providing access to high-quality primary healthcare for women and children. We deploy shipping containers converted into clinics to areas with inadequate facilities and collaborate with local organizations and governments to provide clinical, laboratory, pharmacy, and health education services."
So the restaurant that Alefantis managed is linked to a maternal / child organization, that operates in Haiti and deals with shipping containers.

Found another tidbit. https://care2communities.org/2012/02/28/haiti-adolescent-girls-network-2/ *** I was looking up a Dr. Carvair and found Haiti Adolescent Girls Network. On the front page is none other than a video with Bill Cllinton ready to extol the wonders of the Org. There are many girls and they are all adorable. So another connection is Americares and the Population Council. Take a look. I am going to check on the Dr.

Is this the same Sheehans? If so...they are seem pretty rich and in other forms of distribution.
https://www.sheehanfamilycompanies.com/our-history
(This checks out because in this article https://archive.is/JPUIf she states "grew up in a small town in Massachusetts as one of eight children. My father, who owned and operated a beer distribution company," The company is in Massachusetts.)

I did some digging last night and came across something interesting. I think this NGO called Americares may be the even bigger global picture:
From the C2C website: “C2C’s partner in Haiti, AmeriCares, was instrumental in the founding of the Haiti Adolescent Girls Network.” Notice that this statement is just above the video with Bill Clinton. (https://care2communities.org/2012/02/28/haiti-adolescent-girls-network-2/))))
Who is behind Americares? “AmeriCares guidance includes Honorary Chairman Zbigniew Brzezinski, Ambassador at Large Barbara Bush, and Prescott Sheldon Bush, Jr.“ (https://web.archive.org/web/20170419055700/http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/AmeriCares)))) ...
A look at AmeriCares' advisory board shows links to both the U.S. government and right-wing organizations in the United States. Besides its links to the former CIA director, AmeriCares' board includes his brother Prescott Bush, former U.S. Treasury Secretary William Simon, former U.S. Secretary of State Zbigniew Brzezinski, General Colin Powell, and former U.S. Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger. If asked what word best characterized this group of people, would anyone say "humanitarians"?” (https://web.archive.org/web/20170419060521/http://truedemocracy.net/td2_2/68dyk.html))))

Appreciate your efforts..love when there's research on the DC scene. But I'm with "are we sure" on this one. There's a good chance that Sheehan is a genuine do-gooder. She is a physician's assistant who actually throws herself into the healing arts. There is a movement to convert surplus shipping containers into low cost housing like "tiny houses" so her idea to convert them into clinics was great http://magazine/holycross.edu.issue_45_1005_haiti^feature. We always need to remind ourselves to do a thorough Google search when we zero in on a person or organization to avoid the risk of erroneous conclusions. You got my upvote for effort and for searching out Alefantis connections. I don't regard your post as 100% inaccurate..I'm just urging to proceed with caution. When we make a post on an individual it stays on the Internet forever.

If your idea is that people like alfeantis affiliate with a few legit orgs for cover, just say so. Googling them will never prove much. Persoannly I think you're naive.

Tiny houses is Agenda 21... now called Agenda 2030.
That is nefarious as hell.

Otherwise known as New World Order and we are all slaves pushed into urban areas. Think Hunger Games.
