Thank You for Your Donations:
Physicians for Peace has been awed by the numerous collection drives hosted all across the country. We respond to the needs of our partners on the ground and ship supplies as requested and as they can be adequately managed. At this time, our warehouse is full and we are waiting to ship additional containers to our partners on the ground. While our need for mobility aids has slowed down for the moment, we do appreciate your monetary donations to support our medical missions to Haiti.
Walking Free is an ongoing core program of Physicians for Peace and operates in a number of countries, including Haiti, the Dominican Republic, Guatemala and the Philippines. Your ongoing support through fundraisers and prosthetic limb drives will help us rebuild our capacity to meet the greatly increased demand in Haiti and continue to support our Walking Free programs in other countries.
