HERO HAITI RELEIF PROGRAM

In November, HERO sent nine pallets of critical health care supplies and equipment weighing over 6,000 pounds, including an operating room table, lights and anesthesia machine to the ‘Comite de Beinfaisance de Pignon’ medical center in the remote mountain village of Pignon, Haiti. We are grateful to know the supplies that were sent will help aid in the current disaster relief efforts.
