Dear Friends,

On behalf of all our staff and patients, thank you for your generous giving to Partners In Health! We are so grateful for your partnership and your commitment to our mission.

The magnitude 7.2 earthquake that struck Haiti on August 14 in 2021 left thousands killed, critically injured, and displaced. Zanmi Lasante (ZL), as Partners In Health is known locally, continued to support the provision of urgent care and support the continuum of care for all patients. 

Since the devastating 2021 earthquake, Haiti has experienced a series of disasters—another earthquake in 2022, paralyzing financial challenges, increased gang violence, protests, and roadblocks, and rising starvation and malnutrition among children and adults. Some weeks, we have seen a near-complete lockdown in most of the country.

Your support has been critical. The team at Zanmi Lasante is displaying extraordinary courage and has shown incredible dedication amidst the strife, even over concerns for their personal safety. With gas stations running dry, grocery shelves emptied, banks closed, and health facilities shuttered throughout the country, Zanmi Lasante has kept the doors open and the lights on in every single facility.

Your transformative gift could not have come at a more important time for Partners In Health. Our community is in need of more care than ever. On behalf of our staff and patients in 11 countries worldwide, thank you for choosing to support PIH!

In Solidarity,

Partners In Health
