Mission Viejo City Council

This past Tuesday I had the opportunity to speak at the City of Mission Viejo's monthly City Council meeting.  Hearts for Hearts is based in Mission Viejo so the opportunity to speak and share our mission at home is the best place to voice our needs for medical supplies and financial support.

Mayor, Wendy Bucknum, and the whole Committee were supportive about spreading the word and asked how they can help.  I told them I am looking for connections at Mission Hospital (CHOC) to see if we can get any expired supplies they may have since in the United States the rules are very strict about utilizing medical supplies that are past their expiration date.  Typically these items are discarded but in Ghana, or in the poorest areas of Sri Lanka, these items are very much needed.

If anyone has an "in" at Mission Hospital, in Mission Viejo, or Applied Medical, in Rancho Santa Margarita, I would be very appreciative.  You can contact me through this website by scrolling to the very bottom of the page and clicking on the envelope.
