Crisis is What We Do!

Valerie Colby and Staff, His Eyes, Honduras

At FAME, “crisis” is what we do. For 50 years, friends like you have been providing medical care – in the name of Jesus and with a Gospel message – and right now is just as “crazy” as you might anticipate.

Just this week, we’ve heard from 9 Global Partners requesting our immediate help with Personal Protection Equipment, thermometers and other various supplies they just can’t find or afford.  Because of you, and others like you, to date we have been able to respond to each request.  We have shipped supplies from our warehouse, ordered supplies to be shipped directly, and/or sent the funds needed for them to purchase supplies in-country.

I know this may be a very challenging time for you personally – so, if you are not able to help, know that I fully understand – but if you are able to help, you’ll be having an immediate and lasting impact.

For example, just yesterday we shipped a crate full of N-95’s masks, as well as surgical masks, exam gloves, and an infrared thermometer to Honduras. The request came in late last Friday and they should have the supplies in-hand just after Easter. That’s what I mean by immediate and lasting impact!

The shipping cost of that one shipment was $580– fortunately, FAME’s Emergency Fund had been replenished by many friends like you in February and we were able to send it without delay.

But because we are getting requests daily– that fund won’t last much longer. That’s why your gift right now will go to work right away.

Either way, know that we are grateful, that the recipients of emergency medical supplies will be helped, and that you will be making a difference in the name of Jesus – our risen Lord and Savior!
