How You Can Support Our Mission to Provide Lifesaving Medical Care One Flight at a Time

August 15, 2024

Haiti is enduring one of the most challenging periods in its history. The recent surge in violence has left over 580,000 people displaced, creating an urgent and unprecedented need for medical assistance. As the only helicopter air ambulance service in the country, Haiti Air Ambulance (HAA) provides hope, delivering essential medical supplies, emergency transportation, and support to the most vulnerable Haitian communities. To continue our lifesaving work, we need your help.

Contribute to a Lifesaving Emergency Helicopter Ambulance Flight This Month

Every month, HAA sets out to fund one crucial flight mission. This mission, which costs $4,500, is not just about transporting patients—it’s about saving lives. The funds we raise support several critical elements that are integral to the success of each mission.

Life-Saving Emergency Medical Transport: Haiti is a country with scarce medical facilities, particularly in remote areas. Our helicopters are equipped with state-of-the-art medical equipment to transport critically ill or injured patients from the most isolated corners of the country to Haitian hospitals to receive the care they desperately need.

Critical Medical Supplies: Each flight carries essential supplies such as medication and oxygen. These resources are vital for stabilizing patients during transport and ensuring they receive the best possible care en route to a hospital.

Immediate In-Flight Triage and Care: Our highly trained medical teams are on hand during every flight to provide immediate care, assessing and stabilizing patients so they arrive at the hospital in the best possible condition. This immediate intervention can often be the difference between life and death.

Delivery of Doctors, Nurses, and Medical Supplies: In addition to patient transport, our missions include delivering medical staff and vital supplies to clinics and hospitals in remote areas. These regions often lack basic medical resources, and our flights ensure these critical needs are met.

Fuel, Maintenance, and Operational Support: Running an air ambulance service in Haiti is no small feat. The funds we raise also go toward keeping our helicopters in top condition, ensuring they are ready to respond to any emergency.

How You Can Support Healthcare in Haiti

Supporting Haiti Air Ambulance means directly contributing to a service that is often the only lifeline for many Haitians. By donating to fund a $4,500 flight mission this month, you are helping us save lives, one flight at a time.

The Crucial Healthcare Gaps Haiti Air Ambulance Fills

In a country where healthcare access is limited, HAA serves as a critical lifeline, addressing several key needs:

Maternal and Perinatal Care: Haiti has the highest maternal mortality rate in the Western Hemisphere. Our services are essential for the 40% of our patients who are pregnant women and newborns. Equipped with portable ultrasound machines, infant warming pods, and safe transport devices, our air ambulance saves mothers’ and babies’ lives.

Patient and Doctor Transport: For Haitians living in remote areas, getting access to medical care is a life-threatening challenge. We transport critically ill patients to hospitals and ensure that doctors, medications, vaccines, and medical supplies reach those who need them.

Emergency Response: In the aftermath of natural disasters or during health crises like cholera outbreaks, HAA is often the only means of transporting essential supplies and medical personnel to the affected areas. Our rapid response helps alleviate suffering and maintain human dignity in the face of disaster.

Healthcare Training and Employment: HAA is committed to empowering Haitians through education and employment. Our training programs, including Basic Life Support (BLS), provide community members with the skills they need to save lives during emergencies. By investing in local talent, we help build a more resilient healthcare infrastructure in Haiti.
