Shoes for HAITI
"Welcome"
It is my hearts desire to bring HAITI to you by this blog.
I have had the privilege of visiting HAITI twice in the past year by participating in Mobile Medical Outreach Clinic with NVM, Nehemiah Vision Ministries (Chembrun, Quest).
NVM is located 10 miles from the capital Port-au-Prince.
NVM campus includes a hospital, medical clinic, offices, school, church, cafeteria, volunteer housing, team dorms, warehouse, and various storage facilities.

One of the many things I witnessed was the numerous children and adults without shoes! I humbly share with you all that I am abundant in athletic shoes. As a runner, I have a surplus of shoes that I am unable to run in and I decided to ask around town and collect used athletic shoes and "give back" to HAITI .
I have currently cleaned out my closet and now ready to take the first step in donations. Join me in this outreach by giving me YOUR shoes; I will wash them and have them clean and ready to ship to HAITI via Indiana (USA corporate office of NVM). If possible a $2-$4 donation per shoe would be helpful to assist with shipping, but not mandatory.
