Haiti Disaster Relief
Posted on: 01/22/2010
OSS physician, Dr. Gracia Etienne, was born and raised in Haiti. Following the devastating earthquake, Dr. Etienne has been traveling to Port au Prince to provide medical care to those in need. Many OSS patients have asked how to make a donation to assist with the disaster relief efforts. We thank you for your support and concern.
There are two options that OSS is recommending. Dr. Etienne developed a nonprofit charitable foundation called MIVO (Mission Volontaire) to help improve the lives of those less priveleged. The vision is to build an orthopaedic hospital in Haiti to make this care more accessible. If you wish to make a donation to MIVO, please make a check payable to the MIVO Foundation and mail it to MIVO Charitable Foundation, 6331 Salem Run Road, Dover, PA 17315. MIVO is mobilizing all resources possible to help. Be assured that your help will 100% be dedicated to this cause.
The Red Cross is taking donations via www.redcross.org. They are dedicated to ensuring that the funds will go directly to Haiti to provide for their needs and to help rebuild the city. There are also opportunities to volunteer and give blood with this organization.
Thank you again for your support. Your generosity is appreciated.
