When quake hit, Kevin dropped everything and worked along with a few others to assemble a medical team of 13 doctors and nurses, all the medical supplies they could carry and scrambled to get transportation into Haiti. Yesterday, they left from Logan to the Dominican via Puerto Rico. With help from Audio Adrenaline's mission Hands & Feet, a 7 passenger plane shuttled Kevin, the team (a few trips) and supplies, landing 2 towns over on a street in Leogane a few hours ago, just after another 6.1 earthquake hit. Kevin is on site now and has reported that they have one make-shift clinic set up and immediately addressing the most severely injured. (BTW - good news, even though all the buildings at the mission were either destroyed or severely damaged, their WELL is working and this mission has become the center of relief for the entire town, the entire area.) Here are pictures of the mission and surrounding area after the quake. Tremors continue.
