Mortality and Morbidity in Kenya
THE STORY: Through donations, we were able to assist in improving the health of mothers, newborns, and young children in Kenya. The goal is to reduce the mortality and morbidity rate for mothers and children under the age of five.
Haiti Project
THE STORY: Our club visits La Gonave each year and we bring donations in the form of money and goods to help the Haitians create and maintain a better way of life. Our funding goes towards the purchase of medication and facilitates a mobile medical clinic, with a midwife, 2 doctors, and a pharmacist on hand to treat over 100 children and adults who would not normally have access to these services. The medical staff we sponsor provides De-worming medication (mainly for children), infection care, and severe heartburn care due to the lack of food. And much more. One man was in need of advanced treatment, so he was driven by vehicle to a facility an hour away, treated, and brought back to the village. He most defiantly would have lost his leg due to infection had the clinic not been held.
DONATIONS: $1,500 this year, $2,000 for 2015-2016
