Haiti Mission Trip & How You Can Help…
We will have a mission team heading back to Haiti July 20 – 27. We will run a free clinic for the week seeing 400+ families a day. We will also be providing medical care at 2 orphanages & tent cities that we work with. In addition, we will be doing some construction projects at a local church, as well as, building homes 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 fund-raise between now & then. PLEASE help us round up these supplies & donations. We need supplies dropped off at Eagle Pointe by Sunday July 13th – 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:
- $2000 – medical supplies for free clinic we run while there.
- $3,500 – building materials for homes (purchased in Haiti)
- $600 – local laborers to assist w/ construction projects
