Now more than ever, we need your help. The devastation of the Haitian earthquakes is incomprehensible and we want to do our part to support the people of Haiti. One of the biggest issues being discussed are the number of amputations occurring and the impact this will have on people being able to survive and rehabilitate their lives. The last statistic we heard was that there were over 100 amputations a day with more imminent as infections take hold.
The only prosthetic lab in Haiti, Healing Hands for Haiti Foundation (HHHF), was 75% demolished in the earthquake. Healing Hands for Haiti has been a long time partner of ROMP and a model we have always emulated and respected. Members of HHHF are in Haiti now assessing the damage and planning the prosthetic rehabilitation relief effort.
Please view this CNN video that discusses HHHF.
