While Dr. Tracee Laing and Paul Hammond were on the
road in August and September, they spread the word about Healing Art
Missions from Ohio to the west coast and back. The pair added the HAM
logo and website address to the back of their teardrop trailer, raising
curiosity and interest wherever they traveled.
All of us at Healing Art Missions wish you a hopeful and prosperous new year.
We thank all of our
donors for their generous support in helping HAM's continue our success in
providing primary health care to the 20,000 people in Dumay, Haiti. But the needs in Haiti are great and continue despite the changing of the calendar. Please consider whatever financial support you can provide and visit our Support Page.
January 2012 Medical Mission
Read posts from HAM's first medical mission in 2012
HAM is pleased to announce the planned opening of the Noel Dusan Eye Clinic in January 2012, to be
located in the Centre
de Santé Communautaire de Dumay. Noel Dusan, pictured right, Past
District Governor of District 13K of Lions Club International, was instrumental in
helping Dr. Janine Flood to first bring eye care to the Dumay community in
Haiti. Through Noel’s efforts, HAM received a major grant from Lions Club
International in 2003 supporting the eye care program overseen by Dr. Flood.
To
honor Noel, who passed away earlier this year, HAM has named the new eye clinic
to be opened this coming January the Noel Dusan Eye Clinic. The clinic will be located within HAM’s Dumay
clinic and will initially operate one week per month. The clinic will offer
complete eye exams, glaucoma and cataract treatment, eye infection treatment,
and eyeglasses. Eyeglasses are supplied through Lions Club donations.
An anonymous
leadership donation will match contributions to fund the equipping and
operation of the Noel Dusan Eye Clinic to a total of $4,000. The value of your contribution
today will be doubled to further Noel's dream of providing eye care to a
population that otherwise would not receive care. If you would like to
contribute to this important program, please visit our support page for
instructions. Please note on your check or PayPal payment that your donation is
for the Noel Dusan Eye Clinic.
Special Thanks... to Dr. Jonathan Warner of the Kenton Vision Care, Kenton,OH for donating an autorefractor for use at the new Noel Dusan Eye Clinic(see above)
and to... the congregation of First Presbyterian Church and community of Granville, OH for raising $2000 through an opportunity drawing for a donated hand-sewn, appliqued, pinwheel pattern quilt. The money has been designated for support HAM's cholera clinic in Dumay, Haiti. Special thanks to congregation members Terrie Hostetter and Janine Flood for their hard work and perseverance in making this fundraiser so successful.
