heading back to General Hospital(HUEH) and Hospital De La Comminaule (the hospital near the old folks home) – continuing to drop supplies from yesterday’s plane delivery of medical supplies- Thank you Sidney! Also, thank you North Face for your donations and everyone else that has been supporting Project Haiti-
Eric wanted us to let you know that he wants to personally thank RON and MARLYS BOEHM for their very generous donation and for facilitating a donation for 30,000 gallons of diesel fuel( approx. $200,000.00) by an ANONYMOUS donor. He is on his way to do a night water drop with no security. He says the streets are safe, the people are organized, gracious and happy to see us, despite what the media is saying, they are just tired and hungry. NGO’s are not stepping up to the plate. Thank you guys for all your support, it truly is what keeps him going. THE CAN-DO TEAM

Eric will not be able to complete the video update due to ANOTHER aftershock!!! He will get it up as soon possible. We will keep you updated with any further news. THE CAN-DO TEAM
Besides the NGO’s being non existent out here-the trouble is diesel(gas) to power the trucks (which we now have over 20+) Today, we put the word out and after some networking we just got 30,000 gallons of diesel donated!! This will keep us in operation and our trucks on the streets for over a month, maybe two months, doing supply drops, water drops and medical drops to the hospitals(got 2 tmrw-General Hospital and Kings Hospital) Starting tmrw we should be fully operational- we will also be pushing out 100,000g of purified water a day with a Haitian run water company out here- I supply the diesel he supplies the water- today was a good day! We r heading out right now to a night water drop of 30,000gallons + to a camp by the capital that have yet to receive anything in 10days-NGO’s NEED to start stepping up!!! Will keep u post-thx u! ek
