Dear Friends of Haiti,
In spite of the many struggles to fund shipments and move donations through customs, VIDA remains committed to this impoverished country that has now receded into the background after the tragic earthquake. VIDA has worked with two medical missions as a means to provide care empower teams to people in need to Haiti.
VIDA is continuing to send additional aid to our project in Cayes Jacmel which is still reeling from the effects of the devastating earthquake. A group of physicians led by Dr. Magloir continues to visit Haiti twice a year, bringing with them donated supplies and equipment from VIDA. Recently, the group carried 10 suitcases of expensive respiratory supplies and equipment along with patient care materials. The value of the materials was in excess of $25,000. These types of shipments will continue four times a year due to your support.
VIDA looks forward to expanding on this model made possible by your generous support.
