Americare Neurosurgery International Inc & Relief International: Fund Raising Campaign for bringing Medical Equipment to Hospitals in Myanmar
Reporter: Aviva Lev-Ari, PhD, RN
At the request of Gary Heit Ph.D. M.D., Co-founder and Medical Director Americare Neurosurgery International Inc – a 501.c.3
Welcome to the online funding event for Americare’s new program in Myanmar and to continue our work in Hue University, Vietnam. Our mission, in conjunction with Relief International, is to bring the contents of a modern western hospital to a medical centers in Sittwe and Mrauk Oo, Myanmar and then train the local healthcare providers in it’s use. These regional hospital in northwestern Myanmar are mostly empty, and have less capacity then a US urgent care center.
Please, if you can make a donation of any size to the campaign ($20-100-1,000,10,000!), but more importantly, send this link out to your friends in the hopes of it going viral, we would be deeply indebted.

I am writing to ask for your creative help on a fund raising project. View the two short video clips, and you will understand why I am so driven.
Kaiser hospital donated a used scanner to Mynmar, but funds need to be raised to have it shipped.
No donation is too small. We conducted an inventory of donated equipment last Saturday, which some will go to Mynmar and some to Vietnam.
I, would more than appreciate any help, guidance insight, or support. This will be Gary’s last project and I want it to get funded as quickly as possible. I have never known anyone as compassionate and generous as Dr. Heit.
Gary did set up a go fund site, but people are not responding. Reality is the overwhelming majority of Americans don’t even know where Mynmar is, nor do they know what real poverty looks like.
Asking for your help, as I am terrible at any social media !
Once you see these video’s you will understand why I am reaching out to everyone.
Below are 2 short video clips about Dr. Gary Heit, and attached is the information about the Fund Raising.
