My Lastest Adventures & Good Deeds

HELPING SAVE LIVES

May has been a fun and interesting month so far! I was interviewed by NBC on Life Saving Dialysis Machine story. I got these dialysis machines donated to Project Save The World for a Haitian fundraiser. Please watch the NBC story below!




DREILING MEDICAL MANAGEMENT DONATES DIALYSIS MACHINES TO PROJECT SAVE THE WORLD – “A BENEFIT FOR HAITI”

Project Save The World
is a 501 (c) 3 non- profit organization that was created to simply and purely give back by changing the world, ”One mission at a time".

Decision made to help Project Medishare: A very worthy cause


Project Save The World
hired Brigitte Andrade to produce and brand a Haitian Fundraiser event they were organizing. The first thing Brigitte did was get PSTW to dedicate their fundraising mission to Project Medishare. In meeting with Jenna Green (daughter of Dr. Barth Green: One of the Founders of Project Medishare) Brigitte Andrade asked what they needed help with and Jenna said they were desperate for a dialysis machine, because their machines were lost in the earthquake; and there were many earthquake victims had crushed injuries. Lives were being lost. Brigitte made a phone call to a her friend Michael Paul Dreiling whom she happen to know owned and operated dialysis centers. She asked if he could help and 1 day later Michael Paul Dreiling and Judy Lease Dreiling of Dreiling Medical Management donated 9 dialysis machines to Project Save The World.

And the gift kept giving. They also donated an anesthesia machine, spare parts, jugs and then a EKG machine. The machines weigh over 2,000 pounds so finding someone to ship these machines became a challenge. First we had to find someone to wrap the machines before they could be shipped. Thanks to J
ennifer Morrison at Renal Care in Clarion, PA, she got New ERA of Clarion to crate the machines. Another friend made a phone call to Tony Robinson of Opa Locka Flightline, who then got Ray Moon at Federal Express to donated their services and ship the machines.

The machines will arrive in Haiti at the beginning of June, when Project Medishare moves into their new permanent structure and these machines will be the beginning of a new Haitian dialysis program.

I am very proud to have helped and supported a very worthy cause along with the founding members of Project Save The World...Heather Williams, Deanna Morales & Jennifer Williams!
