Join us in helping raise money for the future birthing center! On Saturday, July 30th, several dedicated supporters will be skydiving in the Chicago area (Rochelle, IL) in order to help raise money for the birthing center!  

With a population of 10 million, Haiti is the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere. Only about 25% of births in Haiti are attended by a skilled provider. Most women do not receive prenatal, postnatal or newborn care.

As a result, Haiti is the most dangerous country in the Western Hemisphere to give birth. Most of these maternal deaths are caused by eclampsia, sepsis, and postpartum hemorrhage (bleeding). In other words, most of these deaths are preventable.

Currently our skilled birth attendants are providing midwifery care (prenatal, delivery, postnatal and newborn care) to families in the community. We have a vision to build a birthing center in Dèsarmes, Haiti.

The birthing center will be the location where expectant mothers can find medical care and support, education, safe and sanitary conditions, and respect for them and their babies in a safe environment.

We have a goal to raise $10,000 for the future birthing center! Join us in breathing life into families in Dèsarmes, Haiti by donating to the building project.  Interested in skydiving? Volunteer to skydive to help raise money. Email Ashley at info@breathoflifehaiti.com for more information.

Breath of Life Haiti is recognized by the IRS as a 501(c)3. All donations are tax-deductible.
