Background

The first effort of HOM was to provide some sort of medical assistance to areas where none was available.  This initiative has grown to an annual major trip where up to 60 doctors, dentists, nurses and lay people visit Mirebalais.  All travelers pay their own expenses.  In Mirebalais, the team does “whatever needs to be done”, including: unloading boxes; delivering babies; providing medical equipment; providing supplies & medicines; providing cintinuous education; and providing funding for a full time clinic and orphanage. It is a time of great camaraderie and personal reflection, and a life-changing experience for everyone involved.
