We are moving! Yes we are! We are not moving from the compound but we are moving the NICU to a different building in the compound. We want to have a better NICU where we will be impacting the lives of many families throughout Haiti.
We are making new moves and we want you to participate with us by donating and by supporting us on our social media to stay up-to-date with the new changes coming to GLA. This is why we have a Fix the Fort Campaign which entails the relocation of the NICU,Children’s playground repairs, Septic system overhaul, electricity/power overhaul,Vehicle repairs & replacement, kids cubbies for their houses.
GLA exists to provide exceptional medical care to each infant. Our goal is to relocate our NICU to an improved location to provide easy access for ambulances, while providing a safer environment for premature infants. This environment includes appropriate infection control measures, upgraded equipment, and a dedicated back-up generator for the facility. Most of the infants admitted to the NICU require oxygen, CPAP, IVs, or other specialized medical equipment requiring consistent, stable power. GLA started 25 years ago with one premature infant. We have cared for thousands of infants throughout the years, and are now entering a new chapter in our medical care. Please consider giving a gift that will go toward improvements, relocation, and upgraded equipment to help keep GLA in the fight alongside these infants and strive against the statistical tragedy of infant mortality in Haiti. These are all the areas that we need your support. Please go to our website to actively join our GLA team.
