Haiti Relief Effort - Urgent Needs
I spoke with the Haiti team this AM…
There is an urgent need for the following items in Haiti. Docs they encounter throughout the country say there aren’t any of these things left on the island and so far they aren’t arriving in aid shipments:
Bone plates, esp for youth
Bone saws
Ortho drills and screws and pins
External fixtures
Intramedulla rods
Topical lidocaine
BET gel
Inrocethin
Augmentin
Oral antibiotics
Oral narcotic painkiller
Casting plaster / fiberglass
We have medical personnel travelling with us on Saturday who should have the appropriate credentials to help get such items thru customs.
Please have anyone able to help us source such items contact Pastor Brien at Brien@ccob.org or 732.679.9222.
Even after we leave Saturday we will try to expedite delivery of such supplies, so donations in days and weeks to come are welcome and needed.
That said, our team emphasized that docs are delaying surgeries as long as they can while praying for these items.
Please forward to anyone who might be able to help.
