Anesthesia equipment and orthopedic supplies are in Port-au-Prince thanks to dedicated efforts from multiple partners in Haiti and the US. Hope Force personnel are fighting to save life and limb as survivors continue to desperately seek treatment. Transport avenues from the US to Haiti are a crucial need for additional supplies including an anesthesia machine, autoclave, crutches, and wheelchairs.

Hope Force personnel are participating in the regular UN disaster response coordination meetings. The need to purchase and send tents that can serve as a central base of operation and patient recovery is predominant. This urgent need is being felt by most every relief agency working amongst the devastation.

 

Hope Force International is assembling the equipment and personnel to provide a workable Base Camp. The project involves the purchase and deployment of durable tent facilities, which will be located on existing Hospital property, for patient recovery and essential team operations. The initiative will expedite relief and recovery efforts by providing a central point for communication, coordination of work crews and a safe, stable environment for volunteer responders. We have the option of deploying two large tents or multiple smaller units to facilitate these needs and others that will arise during the course of our various projects.

 

A preliminary list of items and funds has been identified to support the Base Camp project. We invite you to consider giving toward these needs or recruiting your church, service agency or company to fully sponsor one or more of these urgently needed items:
