Children's Respite Home & Outreach Project, Haiti

In the last 8 months or so, many of our supporters have been touched by the story of a special little girl called Judeline, who was featured in our last resport.  It was with great sadness that Judeline sadly passed away a few months ago.  Despite showing such incredible courage, and some signs of improvement thanks to the care of our medical team, the disability she faced was too severe to overcome in Haiti.

Most reports we seek to send out, are generally full of the more positive aspects of our work.  Areas of our work which excite people by the progress, and there is of course lots to be excited about!  However, at the same time, we believe it's also important to reflect on some of the tragic and stark realities of Haiti, which remind us of why we're doing this work, and why your support is so critical.

Despite making such significant progress in supporting children with disabilities in Haiti, many children like Judeline still die everyday.  The majority of these deaths could be avoided, if only improved health care was provided.  Within the context of Haiti, Judeline was given the best chance she could have had.  However, the care she really needed is still absent in this country.  With the right support, critically needed new health developments can be implemented in Haiti and through our work.  That's why we would urge you to continue supporting this work.  Your support has helped save so many children over the years, and together we can improve things even more, and ensure that other children like Judeline are given the fighting chance they deserve.  Thank you for your continued compassion and generosity.
