Fighting the War Against Cholera


The Good Samaritan Foundation of Haiti, Inc. is taking very aggressive action in fighting Haiti's cholera epidemic. Since the initial outbreak, we've deployed a supply of medical resources to the tiny island of Ile Le Vache. We've also been proactive and very effective thus far in stemming the spread of the disease within our own school.

 

The Foundation's response to the outbreak has been swift and effective. Our team of volunteers make sure supplies from our donors continue to save lives on a daily basis.

 

Unfortunately, we haven't even begun to see the worst of this epidemic. The escalating infection and mortality rate demonstrate that without immediate response and adequate resources, this epidemic will devastate Haiti. Cholera as a disease is simple to treat, but it requires a consistent supply of very specific supplies and very dedicated medical personnel.

 

YOUR HELP IS URGENTLY NEEDED! As long as cholera is in Haiti, medical supplies will be needed to fight the disease. We are accepting donations of supplies and/or money to purchase supplies. What  you do DOES make a difference - please get involved today!
