IRC/Clinica de Esperanza loads container of PPE to go to Honduras
A container with 1.1 million N95 masks and 19,000 bottles of hand sanitizer was loaded in Virginia today. A former medical intern Gabriella Niestrath Shofner was married not long ago. At the wedding, the father of the bride, Sean Niestrath had a conversation with a ER doc from Virginia, Renee Morrisey. Renee happens to be Rebecca Niestrath's brother-in-law! Renee knew of some masks being donated from Altria., so they directed the donation to the Clinica de Esperanza in Honduras. Toolbank Richmond, who run a non-profit in Virginia received the donation in their warehouse. A team of people, led by Toby Vernon loaded the product into a container for the journey to Honduras.
