Rise Against Hunger is entering its third year of supporting New Hope Hospital in Haiti with life-saving medicine and food aid. Dr. Eugene Maklin, MD, Hospital Director of New Hope Hospital, is asking for additional support from global neighbors like you to keep their operations running during this difficult time. “The Republic of Haiti has experienced an unprecedented socioeconomic situation. The Health sector is hit hard and the vulnerable population is starving. New Hope Hospital, which serves a population over 250,000, quickly faces emergencies that exceed its operating limits. The community health service at the Hospital, which is responsible for the nutrition program, has failed to meet the needs of families, especially the malnourished kids, inpatients, pregnant and breastfeeding women and elders. Today, despite the return to certain normalcy, we continue to face serious problems, hence the need to seek additional aid that can support the most vulnerable people." |
