Hand in Hand Ministries and Supplies Over Seas react quickly to Haiti disaster
As of Monday, January 18, over 150 volunteers gathered at the Supplies Over Seas warehouse in Louisville and sorted, packaged and documented medical supplies for the 40-ft container heading for Haiti. HHM/SOS is working with Food for the Poor for shipping arrangements.
Two pallets with over 500 lbs. of medical supplies, valued at over $30,000 has already been shipped due to the quick action of the volunteers and staff. These pallets are being airlifted into Haiti by Agape Flights working with medical personnel already on the ground. Donations are still needed to help cover expenses. Donations can be made securely on line by using the "click to donate" button on any page. Remember to list Haiti Relief in the special instructions box of the donation form.
