HEART 9/11 - A New Haiti Mission
H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 is planning another mission to help the Haiti Earthquake Victims. We have been asked to take on the task of restoring classrooms at the Love A Child Orphanage in Haiti (http://www.loveachild.com), as well as assisting with the fortification of existing structures and the redirecting of water run-off at the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative Hospital. This facility has been treating the severely injured earthquake victims since the tragedy occurred. H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 anticipates (pending flight availability) beginning the deployment on 4/17/2010 and returning on 4/24/2010. For this mission, we are looking especially for carpenters and mechanically inclined individuals who can lead, and when needed, instruct the residents of Haiti who will be assisting us in this mission. In the near future, we are planning missions which will include medical teams of doctors, nurses and Emergency Medical Technicians. During these anticipated missions there will be plenty of need for more help down the road for all those who have expressed a desire to help the people in need of Haiti. We understand the desire to help is strong and we anticipate calling on members who have expressed their wishes to take part in a Humanitarian Mission. The compound where the Orphanage and Hospital is located will be the ideal location for our Humanitarian Response. While no date has been set yet, we do anticipate that it will be in late April to early/mid May depending on how the re-building missions at the compound move forward.
We have a time constraint for the April 17th mission due primarily to the problem of booking flights, so we are asking that if you are interested in joining this team, please respond by contacting H.E.A.R.T. 9/11 board member John Stack by 6 PM Sunday, April 11, 2010. He can be reached at: johnstack@heart911.org if you can go or if you have any questions. To book a flight, John will need your name as it appears on your Passport, Date of Birth, Address and your Contact Phone Number. Please remember that all who wish to go on this mission may be deferred to a later mission due to the needed skill-sets needed on this re-building mission.
