Notes

Great News – over the weekend HHFoH purchased an Ambulance (see attached
picture) at an auction to be delivered to the Justinien Hospital in the
Northern region. Justinien is the only public hospital in the North and
it doesn’t have an Ambulance. On our last mission trip, we promised them
we’ll do our best to change that. Many people (including women in labor)
have lost their lives because they didn’t have a way to go to the hospital
and the hospital couldn’t reach them either.

HHFoH is currently looking for sponsors to equip the Ambulance and help
pay the cost to ship it to Haiti. We’re aiming to drive it to Miami the
2nd week of May to be shipped to Haiti the last week of May. Please help
us save more lives in Haiti.

Thank you for your continued support and dedication.

Hope to see all of you at our next event.
