Juline and Covsky from our Network Support Team had their hands full yesterday as we (and several other Network organizations) received large shipments from the Operation Handclasp of the US Navy. This opportunity was organized for us by Marianne Stevenson of our partner organization Aerobridge.
The Network itself received 5 pallets of soap from Clean the World, 10 pallets of Biosilver Disinfectant donated by Steven Epstein of Mid-Continent Packaging, Inc., and 11 pallets of medications and supplies from Direct Relief International. There were many more pallets received by other organizations.
We were aided (rescued?) by our great Network partners Father Geordani of ASAP of the Catholic Diocese and Gabie Vincent of Sonje Ayiti who lent us their large transport trucks to receive and take to our storage the materials, and to start to distribute the Biosilver. Despite some inevitable challenges that slowed down our schedule, Juline with Wancito from Sonje Ayiti were able to deliver pallets of Biosilver to Network partners Danita's Children in Ounaminthe, Ft. Liberte Hospital/Caritas in Ft. Liberte, and Haiit Hospital Appeal/Baptist Convention Hospital in Quartier Morin yesterday (pictures in next entry).
The Network Support Team will be starting next week distributing meds, supplies, soap, and Biosilver to clinics all around the region.
Great job, everyone!!
