Last October, one of our owners, Robert Schiller, volunteered in Tunisia with a friend named Sam Amiel who works with the American Jewish Joint Distribution Commitee (JDC), which has provided disaster relief and humanitarian assistance for 95 years. Rob provided everyone in the Tunisia volunteer group with a Gregory Muir 24, including Sam who is now aiding relief efforts in Haiti. The picture above was taken of Sam and his Muir 24 in a US Military Helicopter on its way to Haiti from the Dominican Republic.
The JDC was able to quickly coordinate relief efforts in the area due to its past disaster response experience as well as its network of Israeli, American, and other local partners on the ground in Haiti. Some of their partners include Heart to Heart International, Partners in Health, EcoWorks International, International Rescue Committee, ProDev Foundation, and Medical Corps of the Israel Forces.
