Haiti Humanitarian Trip - Melissa Robinson
AIF member and co-founder, Melissa Robinson, will be volunteering in Haiti starting near the end of December through the beginning of January. She has been working diligently to raise funds for this effort for several weeks now.
Haiti has suffered a lot this year- a major earthquake in January, Hurricane Tomas just a few weeks ago and the Cholera outbreak. The conditions are unlikely to improve very quickly.
Melissa will be working with patients at the Bernard Mevs hospital.
Please consider donating to this effort. Funds raised will go toward volunteer expenses and purchasing supplies for the hospital. The project is also accepting volunteer supply donations (protein bars, water purification tablets, used scrubs, mosquito nets, etc...).
The deadline for donations is December 20.
AIF will accept donations of supplies at the December 3 and December 17 Discussion Meetings.
To donate on Melissa's behalf to Project Medishare and receive a tax-deductible receipt go here.
Melissa's goal is $300.
