VOSH – Providing Much Needed Optometry Services

Volunteer Optometric Services to Humanity (VOSH), an eye specialist team from Pennsylvania, joined us in BML for 2 days in March. They set up in the local Catholic church, where they saw approximately 300 school children, and 214 adults on the first day, with 20 people referred for free surgeries in Cap Haitien. The next day, another 274 people were seen and 21 more people were referred for surgery. All patients with prescriptions received glasses and all adults received sunglasses. Thanks to VOSH for coming to BML. We look forward to partnering with you in the future!

Finally Some Sun

The sun!! We woke up to a beautiful sunrise over the village.  Everyone had a smile on their face and it seemed that even the activity in Bod me Limbe was much more vibrant and alive.  With the nice weather, it appeared the whole village turned out to be seen.

Momben Meets Mama Dan and Papa Dan
