BACK TO BACK HURRICANES
Thanks to people like you we were able to get supplies to the people on the Mosquito Coast or "Moskitia" . These people have no roads to the remote area on the coast that was devastated by back to back hurricanes. Supplies have to be brought by air or sea.
The people here make a living by free diving up to 150 feet to collect sea cucumbers, lobster, and conch. Many develop the bends from rapid ascents and end up in wheelchairs by the age of 40. They sell the goods to North America and Asia.
These supplies included PPE equipment, food and water. During this visit it was discovered there is a great need for the 700 plus families with babies that need milk. Food and Water. This will be our next goal.
Gratefully,

Gloves make it to Tegucigalpa

Hospital San Filipe Street
Dear Friends,
A shipment of gloves made it to on August 4th after many struggles with shipping and customs. They have been distributed since that time. Many to the Hospital Escuela, the largest public hospital in Central America. They were out of gloves period.
The Thoracic Hospital had been out for 3 days. They were running from the street to the OR (see pictures) with my physcian friends who were delivering and helping their fellow workers. Can you even imagine having to operate on people with no gloves, no shoe covers or surgical hats in a sterile envioronment. Or being the patient for that matter. Covid or not, people still need appendectomy's gallbladder removals and all manner of repairs from accidents.
San Fillipe was in a similiar state. It touches me deeply to see these healthcare providers sticking with taking care of the poor armed with nothing. We will continue to see them through this crisis. I hope to help the islands and mosquito coast next. Their ability to get supplies is bad on a good day. Impossible now. We are in contact with the military in hopes they can get the things needed there. The mosquito coast of Honduras has no roads into the area and speaks a whole other language. They are cut off from the world except by air and sea.
Thank you for helping these folks. They think you are angels.
Serving with you,
gayle savage davidson

Clinic gives supplies to desparate Hospital
By gayle savage davidson | Project leader

The situation in Honduras is critical. It was super hard to make the decision to close the clinic temporarily as no one could get to the clinic. We are in a policed state where today the people are only allowed out of their homes once every 2 weeks. They could not get to the clinic as they could not get past the police posts on the roads.
This week we made the decision to pack up all our clinic supplies and take them to the hospital where they are desparate and dealing with the bulk of the effects of the COVID-19. We will deal with replacing ours at a later date. We had gloves, scrubs and various medical supplies.
Next week we hope we can get supplies through to Honduras from the States. We will continue to raise funds to feed folks as starving is definitely not healthy.
Pray for the poor, pray for the resources to come to us.
