Iowa MOST 2013
The 2013 Iowa MOST mission is under way. On February 14, 2013 the team will travel to Guatemala City and on to Huehuetenango for the 8th annual mission to correct the cleft lips and palates of Guatemalans who would otherwise have to live a cruel life without this important surgery.
The assembly of supplies and equipment that will be needed for the mission has commenced as it does each fall. There is careful inventory and packing into the large gaylord boxes that will protect everything through the shipping process. We are grateful for the partnership with FAMSCO* and all of the Rotary District 6000 folks who generously give supplies and funding to make these trips possible. DHL Global Forwarding has been our steadfast and dedicated partner for six years, shipping our supplies and equipment for us. The generosity of DHL Global Forwarding has helped reduce the costs of the missions, which has been an enormous boon to the work Iowa MOST is able to do.
