How to help Haiti

Have surgical experience?  Willing to travel?  Haiti could use your help.

Partners in Health is also stil accepting donations of orthopedic supplies, sutures, bandages, non-powedered sterile gloves, syringes,  blankets, tents and satellite phones with minutes.  Financial support is also desparately needed.
