Mission
The mission of Empowering Haiti is to provide the people of Haiti with quality health care, nutrition, and economic development programs. We do this with a Haitian-led staff and community-based initiatives that lead to self-sustaining communities.
VISION
Provide the resources needed to create a self-sustaining culture of pride and hope within the Haitian community.
Future Aspirations
Empowering Haiti is continuously working to improve our programs and facilities. Here are a few of our major projects.
-
Build a new health care clinic! Our current building was originally constructed to be a storage shed. The demand was so high that we began our medical practice right away. We have grown tremendously and are ready to build a larger, more inclusive space.
-
We need a sanitation system! Many of our patients come in with issues caused by lack of sanitation such as water and sewer. We currently have a well, but to install running water, solar systems, and refrigerators would make a world of difference for our patients.
-
The clinic is in need of a safety parameter. Our land is very open and attracts many animals. We are hoping to fence in our facilities to keep a clean and safe environment for our patients.
-
Initiate new health care programs, which include prenatal and delivery care, diabetes and hypertension programs, an immunization program, and an infant care facility for at-risk babies and malnourished children.
