Medical Volunteers for Pediatric Clinic in Haiti

🇭🇹

Kenscoff, Haiti

Opportunity provided by

Chances for Children

Aims to return children to good health through medical attention and good nutrition in a supportive, faith-based environment that is conducive to their emotional and physical development.

Overview

Widespread poverty, economic turmoil, and devastating natural disasters create a bleak future for the children of Haiti. Due to extreme poverty, many parents are forced to abandon or relinquish their children because they do not have the ability to feed, care for or educate them.

 

The Pediatric Medical Clinic opened in June of 2014.

 

The clinic began with one full time physician (4 days a week). In the fall of 2015 a second physician was brought on and works 4 days a week. The first Mobile Medical Clinic began in January 2015. Since the inception of mobile medical clinics a total of 3,357 patients have been seen by our medical volunteers.
