Ways YOU Can Help
All of
us can help suffering children in some way. Can you assist Healing
the Children (HTC) with a donation of time, services or charitable
gift? Check out the possibilities below to see how you can help heal
the children - one child at a time.
Medical Professionals & Hospitals - If you are a physician,
surgeon, nurse or dentist willing to volunteer your time and skills
to heal local children and those suffering children who cannot
receive the necessary care in their homeland, please contact HTC.
Also, kindly let us know if hospitals with which you are associated
are currently accepting humanitarian referrals, or would consider
doing so. [Foreign
Medical Teams]
Monetary Support - All of the money HTC uses to help children
is donated by individuals or organizations, and the hopes of children
in need are fulfilled through this generosity. HTC can be
specified when donating at your business or organization through
such organizations as Combined Federal Campaign (#39008) and United Way.
You can send donations to the
address below or click on MAKE A DONATION above. If your organization would like to have a
presentation on Healing the Children, please contact us.
Supplies and Equipment - HTC accepts donations of supplies
that are provided to under funded local programs serving
children and sent with the medical mission teams abroad.
Frequent Flyer Miles - Donated miles are used to transport
children to and from the U.S. when their condition can not be
treated in their native country. For American Airlines, click the
"Miles for Kids" link when you are on your frequent flyer page or call: 1800 421-0600. For
Continental Airlines go to your OnePass page, click on
"Donate Your Miles" and find
Healing the Children toward the bottom of the list. Watch this location for information on more airlines.
Local Children - Please see the Hardship
Relief Project for New Mexico. Our thanks to Amelia
Werner for volunteering to coordinate this project for 2007-2008.
Host and Foster Families - Families in New Mexico open their hearts and homes to
children from other lands. Children need homes for four to six
weeks. Some travel alone. Others with a family member. We need
families for 2008.
Administrative Needs - We need a webmaster; a Public
Relations coordinator; a newsletter production organizer; and a
fundraiser for a one time yearly event in New Mexico
