In celebration of International Women's Day, MADRE's Helping Hands program is sending a shipment of first aid supplies, blankets and bottled water to Haiti where it will be distributed through our partners, Zanmi Lasante and Partners in Health. These supplies will reach Haiti next week and will be distributed to women and families who are most in need.

MADRE members have been extremely generous in donating supplies for earthquake survivors in Haiti. Special thanks to Delta Gamma Sorority for organizing a drive at Columbia University.

If you are interested in being a part of our Helping Hands program, or donating supplies to Haiti, contact us at helpinghands@madre.org. Your support is a crucial part of delivering much needed aid to women and families in Haiti and around the world.
