Mobility continues to be an issue in Haiti for the sick and those with amputated limbs. Since the January 2010 earthquake, the population surrounding Grand Colline has increased by 40%. As a result, Haitians living on the outskirts of this region must travel many miles over mountainous terrain for healthcare. Before the earthquake, there were as many as 100,000 Haitians in need of a wheelchair, but unable to afford one. The need has now skyrocketed as hundreds of amputations have been performed since then.

A clinic operated by HAITI HEALTHCARE PARTNERS is the sole provider of care to over 4,000 Haitians living in and around Grand Colline. Expansion of the mobile clinic program will allow doctors to travel by motorcycle to vaccinate students in area schools to prevent illnesses, deliver prenatal care services, and treat those who are too ill to travel. The FREE WHEELCHAIR MISSION seeks to provide mobility to the disabled poor in Haiti so that recipients can have a sense of independence and dignity as they move forward in piecing their lives back together.
