Impact
As the only free healthcare clinic on La Gonâve Island, Haiti, we serve 25-30 children daily, in addition to our students and staff. Our services cover a range of medical needs, from respiratory problems to pediatric care, addressing critical health issues within the community. Our healthcare clinic is staffed by two licensed doctors, two registered nurses, one pharmacist, and dedicated support personnel.
However, sustaining our impact requires ongoing support to provide medicine to everyone seeking care, an area where we face shortages despite our efforts. Despite challenges, our clinic has saved lives, prevented illness outbreaks, and forged partnerships with organizations like La Gonve Wesleyen Hospital and AmeriCares to ensure critical care reaches those in need.
Our vision extends further with plans for a Mobile Clinic initiative, to bring essential medical services to the surrounding remote regions, pending crucial funding for operational costs.
Our clinic has the space to expand our services to adults. We are planning to expand our clinic to treat adults through this expansion. Currently we are only treating children. Our hope is to expand the clinic to make a larger impact on the community.
