notes: Note from Jared Nikkel via Karen Carr via Amy (rolaking @ Hotmail.com) 11/17/80 I spent this morning in the cholera ward installing a clean water source for them to wash with. We have had 38 cases that have not been confirmed as cholera but have been treated as such. 24 cases are currently in the hospital some have gone home and some have died, I think 10 or 12 deaths. I spoke with Gyrlene this afternoon, they do have IV fluids and supplies for IV's both adult and peds, and they do have Doxycycline, but she said they would be grateful for more so they are ready as the cases continue to come in. That's what I know, thanks for checking. God Bless. The Hospital is Operational The Hospital Bienfaisance is one of the few hospitals in Haiti still standing and operational. Promise For Haiti is dedicated to the holistic advancement of Haiti through healthcare, education, community development, clean water and community leadership. Hopital Bienfaisance becomes Trauma Center As one of the few functioning hospitals in Haiti, the Hopital Bienfaisance in Pignon is working as a regional Trauma Center. Hundreds of patients have been seen and treated and numerous complex surgeries have taken place. Because of the large number of cases and the many hours needed in surgery, there have been times when the operating rooms have been active for 24-hours straight. The additional personnel support from the US teams has been a much needed blessing. Individuals have been making their way to the hospital via many other cities and hospitals. Patients are arriving from as far as Jacmel, Port-au-Prince, Leogane, Ouananminthe, La Gonave, and St. Michel. We have sent a truck 50 miles to the borders in Ouananminthe to help transport patients to Pignon. (see map on website) MAF (Mission Aviation Fellowship) is now airlifting patients from Port-au-Prince to the Pignon Hospital. We are waiting for a helicopter to start bringing patients from Jacmel, which is totally overwhelmed with injuries. We Need Your Help We need your help to bring healing and comfort to these people and their families. We can not turn them away. Currently millions of dollars have been donated through the Red Cross and other national agencies, but this money does not reach the hospital or assist in caring for these patients. We need your direct support. We will make every effort to these individuals the best we can with medical care, medicines, food and shelter. Please take a moment and go to our donation page and give generously to allow us to fulfill our mission.

notes: http://helphaitiheal.wordpress.com/extraordinary-needs-locs/ Update 1:12amEST 21 Jan: Per Mark Hunnicutt’s update and others, the orphans’ needs were met by an aid team on 20 Jan., but they will need additional assistance. 100 children were barely alive, and 55 babies had died. No aid teams will travel there without security, which is scarce. Many of the surviving children will likely need to be transported to field hospitals or other locations where they can be helped further. Update: 9:56pmEST, 20 Jan: Spoke with a contact for the orphanage. They are still awaiting word on aid, but the orphanage hospital, equipped to treat about 35-45 patients, is treating over 150. They still need basic necessities, such as food and water, and do not have proper medical equipment. The orphanage is asking for donations in the form of medicine (Tylenol, antibiotics from doctors, Motrin, anti-diarrhea), bandages and medical supplies, diapers, and baby clothing. The clothing can be used, as long as it is clean. Donations should be sent to: Notre Dame Outreach 316 Venice Blvd. West Palm Beach, Fl 33411 ========================== UNSURE IF ACCOUNTS BELOW ARE THE SAME???? ========================== Sources - http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/01/15/windsor-chauvin-orphanage-100115.html Friday, January 15, 2010 Three 18-year-old women who lived in a Haitian orphanage founded by a man from Windsor, Ont., have died following Tuesday's massive earthquake, he told CBC News Friday. A worker at the orphanage also died and two more are missing, said Frank Chauvin, a member of the Order of Canada and the founder of Le Foyer des Filles de Dieu, for girls aged three to 18, in Port-au-Prince, epicentre of Tuesday's earthquake. "There's at least 67 other girls that are still OK, but I don't know if any of them are injured, or what the conditions of the buildings are," said Chauvin. "It's so hard to get any type of communication down there at this time that it was bad enough news, I guess I just have to sit and wait what further [news] there is." Chauvin heard the news Thursday morning from a woman living in Miami who knew the orphanage's director. "She was able to get through and get the news about the kids," said Chauvin. "But nobody could get near the orphanage to check on the children because of the debris and the destruction along the way. "I guess somebody finally managed to get there [Thursday] morning and we got the news then that we had lost three of my girls," he said.

We are unable to find a confirmed donation website for this charity...there appear to be more than one orphanage with this name. -> http://helphaitiheal.wordpress.com/extraordinary-needs-locs/ Update 1:12amEST 21 Jan: Per Mark Hunnicutt’s update and others, the orphans’ needs were met by an aid team on 20 Jan., but they will need additional assistance. 100 children were barely alive, and 55 babies had died. No aid teams will travel there without security, which is scarce. Many of the surviving children will likely need to be transported to field hospitals or other locations where they can be helped further. Update: 9:56pmEST, 20 Jan: Spoke with a contact for the orphanage. They are still awaiting word on aid, but the orphanage hospital, equipped to treat about 35-45 patients, is treating over 150. They still need basic necessities, such as food and water, and do not have proper medical equipment. The orphanage is asking for donations in the form of medicine (Tylenol, antibiotics from doctors, Motrin, anti-diarrhea), bandages and medical supplies, diapers, and baby clothing. The clothing can be used, as long as it is clean. Donations should be sent to: Notre Dame Outreach 316 Venice Blvd. West Palm Beach, Fl 33411 ========================== UNSURE IF ACCOUNTS BELOW ARE THE SAME???? ========================== Sources - http://www.cbc.ca/world/story/2010/01/15/windsor-chauvin-orphanage-100115.html Friday, January 15, 2010 Three 18-year-old women who lived in a Haitian orphanage founded by a man from Windsor, Ont., have died following Tuesday's massive earthquake, he told CBC News Friday. A worker at the orphanage also died and two more are missing, said Frank Chauvin, a member of the Order of Canada and the founder of Le Foyer des Filles de Dieu, for girls aged three to 18, in Port-au-Prince, epicentre of Tuesday's earthquake. "There's at least 67 other girls that are still OK, but I don't know if any of them are injured, or what the conditions of the buildings are," said Chauvin. "It's so hard to get any type of communication down there at this time that it was bad enough news, I guess I just have to sit and wait what further [news] there is." Chauvin heard the news Thursday morning from a woman living in Miami who knew the orphanage's director. "She was able to get through and get the news about the kids," said Chauvin. "But nobody could get near the orphanage to check on the children because of the debris and the destruction along the way. "I guess somebody finally managed to get there [Thursday] morning and we got the news then that we had lost three of my girls," he said.
