Chronicling the trip to Haiti and it's after-effects

Cleveland Clinic Florida at Off the Hookah
Off The Hookah was awesome? People stayed out and danced all night and we raised close to $400 for the Haiti fund. Thanks to EZ and her crew at OTH for helping us out. They went out of their way to maximize our event.
A Volunteer opportunity arose and within 48 hours, emails to some friends and families quickly raised over $6,000. So many people are willing to give when they knew it was going to a specific purpose, rather than a large agency. While my trip was subsidized by Holy Cross Hospital in Ft. Lauderdale, Fl, I have pledged to fund the next trip. I promise that every cent donated will go to either medications, medical supplies, or living supplies (diapers, tents, etc...). These supplies will go with teams directly to hospitals or clinics where they will be distributed with no middle man.

You may make checks payable to Holy Cross Hospital and send to:
