Haiti

Twice a year, IMO travels to the South-Eastern region of Haiti to set up a clinic that offers free health care for the community of Mare-Brignol. With the help of Haitian doctors, we are able to see around 600 patients and offer them the medical attention that they would not have otherwise had access to. In addition to the days we spend in the clinic, our team hosts workshops for the community with a focus on preventative healthcare to teach topics such as nutrition, cardiovascular health, and hygiene. Our partner with Vitamin Angels has allowed us to give vitamin A to the children, helping to prevent eye diseases that accompany vitamin A deficiency.
