UPDATE: How You Can Send Immediate Supplies to Haiti

***UPDATE*** Check out this news piece on the Love a Child clinic then read below to find out what you can do to help...


LOVE A CHILD is a Christian humanitarian organization in the Port-Au-Prince area that operates an orphanage. They are posting updates to their website as often as possible to update the world on the still very dire conditions in Haiti. Currently their medical clinic is treating earthquake victims, but they are in desperate need of supplies. They are asking people to send supplies including:

*Band-aids
*Washcloths
*Toothbrushes/Toothpaste
*Dental Floss
*Deodorant
*Shoes/Flip flops
*Large t-shirts
*Non-perishable foods
*Multi-vitamins
*Tylenol
and MUCH, MUCH more...For a complete list of immediate supply needs please CLICK HERE.

Mail supplies to:

Love A Child, Inc.
Attn: Mike Essman – Haiti Earthquake Medical Donation
9304 Camden Field Parkway
Riverview, FL 33578-0520

*Please print your name, address and phone number on a piece of paper and place it inside each box sent.

You don't have to go out & spend a lot of $$$ on supplies to send. Just look around your house. If nothing else we all have t-shirts, shoes, etc. that we hardly, if ever, wear. I'm packing a box to send today. Since I'm visiting my parents, I'm raiding my mom's cabinets. I can't tell you how many vital supplies I've found that are just sitting around (some hasn't even been opened). She honestly won't even miss. In fact, I probably won't even tell her what I took - bet $$$ she won't even blink twice! So please, please get a box together today with a group of friends, neighbors, church members or co-workers and mail it no later than tomorrow. Remember Monday is Martin Luther King Day so post offices will be closed.
