How We BeganAlthough International HOPE Canada was officially incorporated in 2002, the seeds of HOPE were sown in 1997. Phyllis Reader, an operating room nurse, had participated in international medical missions to some of the most impoverished countries of the world. Struck by the lack of even the most basic necessities, she began saving supplies that were otherwise disposed of at her place of employment in a Winnipeg hospital. In 2001, Sonia Michalyshen, a nursing colleague of Phyllis', was on a mission in Malawi, Africa, and was in desperate need of basic supplies to provide care to her clients in a small clinic. International HOPE Canada Inc. was founded and Malawi became the first country to receive these welcomed supplies | |
