“Anything could happen to anyone at any moment. This is really serious, poverty is increasing and the common good is threatened. Life is filled with anxiety and uncertainty for the people in Haiti. The violent protests have claimed lives and no one knows what will happen next. I am really sorry for Haiti, my home. This hurts a lot.” – Dr. Dianne Jean Francois
She continued: “Sick children and pregnant women are the most affected. I am thinking right now of the women and children in Côtes-de-Fer being served by our hospital. Although far from the violent protests, their lives are in danger. The team at the hospital is reporting dangerously low stocks of medicines and critical medical supplies. But the road blockages caused by the protests, and business closures, means that we can’t rely on our usual supply routes. Our local team is taking calculated risks, looking for alternative routes to get essential medicines and supplies delivered. We have to. Lives are depending on it.”
Every $100 you donate can help deliver more than $20,000 worth of essential medicines and medical supplies to those desperately in need. You can ensure children and families can access the medical care they need to survive. Don’t wait, give now.
