The job of the shipping committee is to help support the on going projects of the Haiti Committee.  In 2008, we sent two 40 foot containers to Haiti containing pipes and valves to support the water project, medical supplies to furnish the various medical facilities, and wire for cages to help the Rabbit project get started.

The supplies for the container are mostly donated equipment that are picked up by many different volunteers and stored at different sites throughout Hampton Roads until ready for shipment.  The supplies must be sorted, counted, boxed or crated up, to ready for shipment.  On the day to load the container, many hands are needed to accomplish this task.  The container is shipped to Port au Prince, Haiti, and then unloaded and distributed to our partners in Haiti.
