Help RAM Bring Free Medical & Dental Aid to Haiti

Since 1995, Remote Area Medical (RAM) has been providing healthcare services to people in need on the island of Haiti. Because of COVID-19 and civil unrest in the region, we have been unable to host clinics over the last couple of years. In 2019, we provided 1,057 patients with free medical and dental care valuing more $195,000, and we are excited for the opportunity to return once conditions allow. 

Now more than ever, people are in need of these essential medical services. We remain committed to our loyal volunteers and providers who continue our mission of preventing pain and alleviating suffering, even when global events create new challenges to be overcome. We appreciate your continued support during these uncertain times.

Remote Area Medical (RAM) and its volunteers have operated on the island of Haiti since 1995. In 2019, our last expeditions to Port-au-Prince and Hinche provided free medical and dental care with a value of $195,700 to 1,057 people. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and civil unrest in the area impacting travel, we were unable to hold clinics in Haiti in 2020 and 2021. At this time, the CDC recommends avoiding  travel to Haiti due to the continued spread of COVID-19. RAM has every intention of returning to provide more free dental and medical care when the region is safe and when the travel barriers have subsided. Recognizing the great need, RAM will continue to alleviate pain and prevent suffering while  looking forward to the day when operations can resume in Haiti. We greatly appreciate your continued support in this time of uncertainty and global crisis.

Remote Area Medical is planning a return trip to Haiti this winter! 

Millions of people in Haiti lack access to affordable healthcare, housing, education, and stable employment. Even more lack access to routine dental care, with very few dentists in the entire country and many individuals are left with few choices when it comes to accessing even the most basic of health and dental care. This lack of accessible treatment can lead to a lifetime of pain and suffering, and for many, this ultimately can lead to early death.

RAM has been partnering with God’s Planet for Haiti - a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization based in Maryville, Tennessee and is also recognized in Haiti as an international nonprofit organization. Presently, there are around 100 students at the GP4H school in Hinche from ages 3 to 13, as well as teachers, a principal, a cook and janitor. RAM will be providing free medical and dental care to the students and families associated with GP4H and will also be holding three clinic days which are open to the public for dental and medical care! RAM’s flight will also carry down supplies for the Christmas shoe box gifts that all students at God's Planet for Haiti will receive. 

We are looking forward to our return and to provide free medical and dental care to so many in need! Your support means the world to us and to the people of Haiti.
