Personal protective equipment (PPE) donated by Princeton Health was shipped to Haiti in late August to bolster the relief effort following a devastating earthquake.
Princeton Health had donated 10 pallets of PPE, including face shields, gloves, and gowns, to MedShare, an international humanitarian aid organization with a collection center in Secaucus, N.J. (See related story in the September 2021 edition of Happenings.)
In a thank-you email to Greg Evans, director of sustainability at Princeton Health, Jane He, MedShare’s Northeast regional director, said three of the 10 pallets were sent to Port-au-Prince, Haiti in a container carrying nearly three tons of PPE earmarked for healthcare personnel responding to the crisis.
