Hello
This is Samuel Harris.Indeed a good team and a plan is the need to help in the relief operations.I'm representing a team of 5 people in Tamilnadu.We are ready to volunteer in the relief operations.We posted many such messages but got no response.We are MBA students and so we dont have the influence to start relief operations on our own.Unless we go with the team we would end up with no work.
But we can very well coordinate in a team and do some physical work.Kindly contact me anytime

Hello

We would like to volunteer to help.

I have over 12 years experience working in the pharmaceutical and medical industry - training doctors and physicians with regards to drugs and medical equipment. I have spent over 5 years working in operating suites and am conversant with virtually all emergency medical drugs and procedures. I also have a diploma in clinical pharmacology. I have visited and worked in India on four separate occasions and have worked with numerous doctors there. I know First Aid and CPR.

My neighbour, Mr Ian Bassham is also a qualified pharmacist with over 40 years experience. He has worked in Australia and abroad in pharmacy and is still currently practising in Australia. He has travelled to the middle east, India and Sri Lanka before and is very family with the country, the people and the culture.

If we can be of service please contact me asap and we will make the appropriate arrangements. We have a current passports and are vaccinated, however we don't have a current visa for India. My last one expired in '02.

I have friends located in Delhi and Bangalore and Kandy (S.L.) that could assist us.

Sincerely

Lisa Hewerdine

Hello,
My name is Kevin Duff.
I am writing this letter in an effort to offer my services as either an employee or a volunteer in your aid effort in south Asia. I am available for a 3 month posting, initially, perhaps more.
In fact, I had made the decision to seek employment with a humanitarian organization before Christmas of this year, and had been looking into three different possible career paths, (water, sanitation, and logistics) in my plan to acquire skills that would be in demand for workers in the field.
I still intend on following a course of study to gain skills useful in that endeavor.
I can see that right now, all the organizations that I have an interest in working with are all likely overextended due to the sheer size of this Asian disaster. It seems to me, that it would be appropriate to offer my services to your organization during this time of need. Unfortunately, most of my previous training does not lend itself particularly well to meeting the needs of your organization (in the fieldwork aspect, at any rate). My skills include computer maintenance and repair; I had previously qualified as a Microsoft professional in TCP/IP, a network protocol. I also have training as a commercial diver, and so am familiar with some industrial and rescue operations. Through that training, I was also certified in first aid (Red Cross), And CPR (HeartSaver). I also became very acquainted with hyperbaric first aid, and in dealing with various barotrauma. I have been known for having a cool head under extreme pressure, and operated well under those conditions.
I also have skills in sales, due to my personable nature and I have previously spoken (with a terrible English accent) Quebecois French, and have always found it easy to pick up the rudiments of other languages that I have been exposed to. I will provide to any agency interested, a copy of my resume.
Right now, I am mostly employed as a construction sub-contractor, and can easily and quickly clear my schedule.
I am forty years old, and single, with three children, who live with me about half the time. Family responsibilities are not an issue, as they are happy to stay with their mother, who lives just about two miles from me. (so long as I can make arrangements to see them with some regularity (every 3-6 months), we would be satisfied). I will happily donate 3-6 months of time to this effort. All I would require is shelter (although I have my own tent and camping equipment, and could use them) and food. I am not sure, but if necessary, I can contribute about $850.00CAN to my airfare, but unfortunately, cant go much beyond that, as I have other debts that I would have to settle before leaving on a long term volunteer assignment I am physically healthy, and recently passed an aviation medical examination for Transport Canada (August, 2003). Also worth mentioning is that I do have a drivers license (B.C., Canada, #6580551), and can drive manual transmission equipped vehicles.
I would be most pleased if any organization were to require my assistance, in ANY capacity, whilst dealing with this most terrible event.
I look forward to discussing my skills and enthusiasm for any positions you have available.
Thank You

My name is Sam Stephens and I am a US citizen. I am completing my doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology and I would be happy to offer my skills in this area for counseling. However, I am willing to offer whatever physical labor or help that is needed to assist in recovery efforts. I believe that I could make myself available for at least one month. I would be happy to provide my own transportation. My heart aches for all those affected. Please know there is love and support for you all over the world. Contact me at forensicpsydx@bellsouth.net
