Norgrove Penny Visits HAH

Norgrove Penny, Senior Advisor for Physical Impairment for the Christian Blind Mission, visited the campus of Hopital Adventisite d'Haiti today.  I'm proud to say that Norgrove hails from my home town, Victoria, British Columbia.   Pictured below are Liala on the left, CBM physical therapist extraordinaire, and Dr Penny in the center.
Dr Penny is internationally recognized for his work and knowledge to help physically disabled children in Africa and Asia. He used a series of techniques for club feet that were among the most advanced in the world and trained doctors in basic medical care and surgeons in advanced skills. He works as CBM's international director for othopaedic work and came to HAH to assess the potential for a collaborative effort with CURE and CBM.

  3. I'm not sure as to the background of this anonymous post. It is certainly not very polite or considerate and I don't think does credit to this blog!
    Even a cursory web search will show that CBM and CURE are both mainline Christian international development NGO's, not Mormon, but willing to partner with anyone of good faith assisting children in need and desiring to serve irrespective of ethnicity, gender, culture or religion.
