HWB Team Going to Haiti - 23 May 2011

After an interval of reassessing its activities in Haiti, Homeopaths Without Borders-NA (HWB) is sending a team on May 23 to continue its programs in and to explore the initiation of new activities. Members of the team include Holly Manoogian, HWB's Projects Coordinator; Sally Tamplin, Mission Site Manager, Haiti and Alyssa Wostrel.

Holly, CCH, a graduate of the New England School of Homeopathy, has a private practice, Homeopathic Health Care, LLC, in Wolfeboro and Amherst, NH. Additionally, with colleague Suzanne Smith, she offers a free homeopathic clinic once a month for children and teens who struggle with learning, behavior, emotional or attention difficulties. Her interest in the health and welfare of young people led her to co-found the Appalachian Mountain Teen Project in Wolfeboro. Her extensive experience with non-profit organizations as well as her homeopathy knowledge makes her a welcome addition as Projects Coordinator for HWB.

Sally has traveled to Haiti twice before as a HWB team member, actively participating in both treating at St. Vincent's and teaching nursing students at the University of Notre Dame. Hailing originally from the UK and now residing in Illinois, Sally holds a DIH from the British Institute of Homeopathy. She is an experienced homeopathic practitioner and consultant, working though her company, Alternative Horizons LLC. Her list of accomplishments includes an education degree and classroom teaching at all levels.

Alyssa, a resident of Venice, California, also holds a DIH from the British Institute of Homeopathy. In addition to experience treating clients privately, she has spent more than 13 years working in the homeopathic field in sales, marketing and the regulatory aspects of homeopathic production and distribution, both as a consultant under the aegis of her own company, IM Integrative Solutions, and in corporate positions with Heel Inc. As a Global Fellow with Unite for Sight, she traveled to India with a volunteer medical mission where she engaged in triage in city slums, villages and orphanages.
