The Medical Crisis
There is a crisis in Haiti when it comes to adequate medical care for children. Local clinics are unable
to provide adequate medical care in this poorest country in the
western hemisphere.
The loss of Rose Carline to tuberculosis, the near-fatal illness of Robenson, and several other serious medical needs with our children have increased our determination and resolve to quickly provide a place of hope for children with medical needs.
Phase One: Dental Clinic...Completed!
The dental clinic was constructed and completed in 2010. This multi-purpose clinic serves as not only a place in which to perform the dental procedures needed among the children of our community but also a temporary medical clinic. We can now render medical services to treat what most might consider minor medical c
omplications, but can become life-threatening in Haiti if left untreated.
When medical teams arrive to help us, this also provides us with a base station for their exams and procedures. We are so thankful to have this facility!
Phase Two: Medical Center
...Under Construction
The Children’s Medical Center is currently under construction and will be a three-story 17,000-square-foot facility that will provide for basic outpatient and medical assistance in a clinical setting. It will be much smaller in scale than the planned hospital but will quickly fill the gap and be a place where medical teams can work and provide care and health education to the community. It will provide medical, dental care and a pharmacy for the children, and will also provide housing for our doctors, medical teams, missionaries and visitors.
See the progress in the construction photos.
Phase Three: Future Children’s Hospital
Once the Medical Center is complete and operational, we will turn our full attention to the construction of the Children’s Hospital. This facility will be a state-of-the-art, 31,000-square-foot in-patient hospital with full-scale medical care for children. It will include many beds for in-patient care, an eye-care diagnostic and treatment area, full-scale surgical center, pharmacy, full dental care, diagnostics and imaging, emergency room and health education areas.
Completion of the hospital will allow us to treat and save the lives of thousands of children from our region and throughout Haiti, meeting the vast health-care needs of the Haitian people.

Building #6 is the phase-two Children's Medical Center under construction.

Why YOU are the Hope for Haiti
As you can imagine, projects like these requires significant funding and support. Danita's Children cannot complete the Medical Clinic and the Children's Hospital without increased support.
Please prayerfully consider how you might give to make it possible to
save more children. Here's some ways you might want to consider:
If you are a medical professional or medical equipment/supplies
provider, your help is needed. Lab technicians, nurses, pharmacists,
optometrists, surgeons, doctors, clinic managers and more will be an
important part of the medical projects. We are also in need of
qualified construction experts, plumbers, electricians, medical
equipment installers, cooks and long-term missionaries to work at the Medical Center.
The cost to complete our medical projectsl is greater than any project we've completed to date. Though it may seem
impossible to some, we believe that the Medical Clinic and Children's Hospital are a part of God's
plan for Haiti. So we are confident He will provide through supporters
like you. Won't you please ask Him how you might be able to
participate in this important effort? Other creative ways you might be
able to participate might be by donating equipment and supplies, or perhaps frequent-flyer miles to help professionals and staff with travel. 
Please tell everyone you know about the important work of Danita's
Children and the medical projects. We cannot complete the
Medical Center and Children's Hospital without increasing our supporter base. Contact our stateside
offices for your Tell5 cards to help you spread the word. Tell
your friends and family to log on today and encourage them to make a
donation or sponsor a child like Loveka. ( read Loveka's story).
