Wednesday, January 27 — Northwest Haiti Christian Mission has been overwhelmed with requests from U.S. medical professionals desiring to travel to Haiti to assist in earthquake relief efforts. At this time, organizations in Port-au-Prince are turning away medical volunteers for lack of resources and facilities to utilize them. NWHCM is unable to accept any new inquiries for medical personnel at this time, though we will continue utilizing small, specialized medical teams on a limited basis, based on the recommendations of our medical staff and their analysis of the medical needs in Haiti.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and we are truly grateful for the God-given desire to help. Haiti’s need is greater than ever, and will continue to be for years to come. There will be ample opportunities to serve on NWHCM medical teams later this year and in future years, and we encourage anyone interested in serving to consider applying for one of those teams. — The NWHCM medical staff
