Aid Update

We are currently shipping approximately $15,000 of aid supplies to Port-au-Prince and affected areas each business day! Our shipments are requested and recieved directly by hospitals, orphanages, etc.—so that we minimize spoilage, waste and misuse (very real aspects of delivering aid). To date, we have shipped 7000 gallons of fuel, and roughly 20 tons of food and medical supplies totalling $65,000.
