Heartbreak in Haiti
Victims at the Gate
 " A little before 5:00 yesterday the roar started. Something like a tornado, except the trees weren't blowing - they were moving. And so was our truck and the ground and me. My reaction was something like - what was that? Earthquake!" MedSend grant recipient Ryan Price, OD, serving in Haiti

Board approves 12 grants
Called and ready to serve
MedSend’s board recently approved grants for 12 healthcare professionals including physicians, nurses and public health workers. They plan to serve in areas of great need including India, Honduras, Dominican Republic, Mali, the Middle East and other parts of Asia. Seven of the 12 are preparing to serve in areas so sensitive that their locations and identities must be kept secret.
“We are thrilled to approve grants for this dedicated group of professionals,” said MedSend President Daryl Erickson. He noted that although the grants are approved, MedSend is now engaged in raising money to fund them.
“These 12 individuals have completed their medical training, have been accepted by their sending organizations and are ready to go,” Dr. Erickson said. “It will be a privilege for MedSend to enable their missionary service as God provides the needed funds through the generosity of our faithful supporters.”
