Haiti Mission Trip & How You Can Help!

We have a team heading back to Port-au-Prince/Carrefour, Haiti June 16-23. We will run a free clinic for the week seeing 300+ families a day. We will also be providing medical care at 2 orphanages & 2 tent cities that we work with. In addition, we will be doing some construction projects at a local church, as well as, around the local community. And we need your help to pull this off!

Below is a list of supplies needed for our Haiti mission trip. As well, there is also a list of the money for projects we need to fundraise between now & then. PLEASE help us round up these supplies & donations. We need supplies dropped off at Eagle Pointe by Sunday June 10th – so we can pack everything up & have it ready to go.

If you are unable to bring items to Eagle Pointe – again, donations of money are definitely needed (we will be buying a lot of needed supplies in Haiti – easier than carrying it all & supports the local economy). You can donate online HERE  (be sure to select “Haiti”)  or email me.

Money – fundraised:

• Medical supplies – have already been covered (GO GOD!!!)
• $3000 – building materials & food for feeding programs (purchased in Haiti)
• $600 – local laborers to assist w/ construction projects
• $1000 – to bless local church in their ministry

General Items:

• Tooth brushes
• Tooth paste
• Small toys, dolls, etc to giveaway to children (LOTS of small items are easier to pack in suitcases & can cover more kids – ‘happy meal size’ is ideal)
• Candy to giveaway to children (lg bags of smaller pieces)
• Multi-Vitamins (Children & Adult)
• Reading glasses (varying strengths)
• IPhones & Blackberries (Our ministry friends in Haiti can get service pretty cheap – but phones are very expensive. This is also much cheaper than computers/laptops so they can have email access, etc)
• Large Suitcases (We need 16 of these)

Medical Items: (We need LOTS of these medical supplies) (Donations to help purchase these are greatly needed as well)

• Anti-fungal medicine (Lotrimin or other otc athletes foot meds)
• Permethrin 5%
• Neosporin/polysporin
• Benadryl  (tabs & children’s liquid)
• Ibuprofen (adult and children’s liquid
• 1 % hydrocortisone cream or other prescription steroid cream
• Mebendazole by prescription
• Antibiotic eye drops – by prescription
• Visine and Visine allergy
• Albuterol inhaler by prescription

Please help us make a difference in the lives of so many struggling people & families in Haiti & show them the real, practical, & tangible love of Jesus!
