A New Lifeline on La Gonave!

We celebrate with La Gonave Wesleyan Hospital the recent dedication of a new blood bank, made possible through partnership with World Hope International. For years, securing blood for emergency transfusions was uncertain and often delayed, placing mothers, surgical patients, and trauma cases at serious risk.

This long-prayed-for milestone now brings safer deliveries, faster emergency care, and a powerful new measure of hope when every second counts.

It’s been a meaningful few weeks for students and leaders at Wesleyan University of Haiti School of Nursing!

Eleven nursing students recently made the long trip to Les Cayes to sit for their licensure exams. We’re grateful they traveled safely and proud of the dedication it takes to reach this important milestone.

This week, the school had the honor of welcoming Haiti’s Minister of Health to the campus while he was visiting La Gonave. He met with students, congratulated the school on the strength of its training, and encouraged leaders to increase enrollment to help meet the country’s growing need for well-prepared nurses.

It’s exciting to see this kind of momentum surrounding the nursing program. The future of healthcare in Haiti is being shaped in these classrooms.

We're proud of Ventor, a pharmacist from Zimba Mission Hospital, who is beginning an internship at Choma General Hospital. He will return to Zimba in a year with new knowledge, skills and experience that will benefit the hospital and the patients it serves.

With support from GPHN, Ventor recently completed advanced training at Lusaka Apex Medical University. Investing in the education of national healthcare staff is a priority for us, and it’s encouraging to see that investment bear fruit as Ventor takes this next step in his journey of service
