Donations

Donations will be used to acquire as many medical supplies as possible in order to relieve the heavily stressed medical establishment of Homs and other similar areas in Syria. Things like chest seals, antibiotics, burn gels, and celox are badly needed. I have experience as a battlefield medic from my time in Libya.



More is always better. More medical supplies, more personnel. Armor and a few other things are taken care of already. The rest is to the relief supplies, transport, and other support equipment. I will also be working hard to document what is happening in Syria.

Anything at all helps. I will post updates as donations mount.
