Dominican Republic

There are thousands of undocumented Haitian Dominicans in the community of Barahona who don’t have access to healthcare. Our clinic in Barahona makes sure hundreds of marginalized children and families get the healthcare they need.

But the clinic is not self-sustainable—yet. We need to expand our services to patients with insurance. These paying patients will make sure that the most vulnerable members of the community still have healthcare.

By adding a laboratory and pharmacy to the clinic and expanding services to insured patients, the clinic will be fully sustainable by 2025.

Our Medical Clinic staff in the Dominican Republic need a vehicle to transport medical supplies, our community nurses and doctors and, in some cases, sick children from communities to our Barahona Clinic.

The villages we serve are difficult to travel between, especially in the rainy season. A van will make sure that our staff have all the medical supplies they need to keep the children in good health. This van will help keep over 1,200 children healthy!
