PONTE HEALTH- BABY FOOD PUERTO RICO

Donation protected
Victoria is a blessing, and largely the inspiration that founded Ponte Health ; our mission at the firm is To Help Expand the Healing Community.

Puerto Rico and the caribbean islands have suffered inmeasurable damage through this storm season, and Victoria and Myself, My Firm -Ponte Health, My Family, and Partner Physicians and Organizations feel it is imperative we help babies and small children with the most basic necessity : Food.

Babies are some of the most vulnerable victims in any disaster, natural or man-made.

I want you to seriously consider the following :
(a) Babies need to eat on a regular schedule, sometimes quickly (2-3 hours)
(b) Not all babies can take breastfeeding
(c) Mothers cannot breastfeed if under-hydrated
(d) Ponding waters will propagate infectious disease and bacteria, and breastfed babies can fall victim via lactation

Please help us help them !

Ponte Health has requested a quote from a Private Plane Charter flight into PR this month. Tentatively to take place on Saturday October 14, a single day -in and out,  solely to deliver Baby Formula, Baby Food, and Powder Milk.
We get to carry 1,600 lbs of it into the island, but at a cost : about $35,000 just for the flight (crew and gas) arriving in PR around midday.

We need your help to cover the flight and help expand our effort to reach as many babies as we can !!

Will you assist us? 
Can we raise the incredible amount of money this quickly, to avoid a tragedy?

Let us help babies in Puerto Rico from the horrid feeling of hunger, those who do not deserve to feel it, and help avoid the anguish of parents who do not deserve to endure it due to the force of Mother Nature.

Victoria and I, and Ponte Health and Partners involved -many of whom are Physicians, and all babies in the island and their parents, will be forever grateful.


We will do something very special for all of our contributors after the fact.
With our deepest gratitude, we thank you for your consideration to participate in this mission.
