Haitian Women's Association of CT & United Haitian American Society joint efforts


Pascale Millien Faustin is an active member of HWACT. Here is some of what's happening because of her hard work: 


Gerry Azor from UHAS donated 12 CASES of Aspirine to the Haitian Women Association of CT for the Good Samaritan Clinic in Carrefour. The donation was delivered to St. John Episcopal in Stamford.


HWACT board member, Sandra Villard an Advanced Nurse Practitionner (Adult & Pediatric) managed to get one establishment to donate 5 hospital beds with 3 mattresses. Thanks to Stephanie & Pascale the 5 beds were picked up and are being stored in a Norwalk Warehouse for free. The warehouse facility is sponsored by HAPAC's Haiti Relief project. Know of an organization in need of hospital beds for Haiti? 

On behalf of HWACT, Pascale made a presentation on Saturday, Feb. 20th at the Ferguson Library South End branch (Stamford) to collect crutches, canes, walkers and wheelchairs for quake victims. Amazingly enough, several community members volunteered to help locate these items. So far, we were able to collect 2 canes, 1 set of crutches, 1 walker, all of which will be delivered to St John Episcopal Stamford so volunteers will be able to take with them when possible to Haiti.
HWACT is currently looking for FREE shipping to Haiti to send collected items in bulk. If you know anyone able to help let us know.
