Project Groundswell is proud to announce the launch of the 100 Beds for Haiti Campaign. 

Tomorrow will mark the two-month anniversary of the devastating earthquake in Haiti that killed hundreds of thousands of people – leaving far more injured and homeless. In the wake of the tragedy, we have been working with a group of friends and colleagues to help establish a project that addresses both the immediate needs of Haitians as well as the long-term recovery of the nation itself.

100 Beds for Haiti is partnering with the largest and best hospital in Haiti, Hôpital Sacré Coeur (HSC), to raise the financial and material resources to get 100 hospital beds where they are desperately needed.  Currently, HSC has 73 inpatient beds with over 300 patients to treat, with more patients arriving each day. Additional beds are crucial to the recovery of the population and the expanding needs of the hospital. As emergency relief efforts and global consciousness of the disaster dwindle, we must work hard to keep the vast needs of Haiti’s long-term recovery and sustainable development on people’s minds.

Today, we are asking all of you to join this campaign and to support the recovery of Haiti by improving the health of Haitians at Hôpital Sacré Coeur, and we are inviting you to join us.

Please take a moment and visit the 100 Beds for Haiti website to learn more about the effort, who is involved and who we’re working with. Join the campaign by donating today, following it on twitter, becoming a friend on facebook, and reading about the fundraising and advocacy events and activities on the 100 Beds for Haiti blog. Join the list-serve and share your input and insights on how to make the campaign’s goals materialize.

Moving forward, the campaign would appreciate your feedback, ideas, and support. One of the biggest goals with this campaign is to foster continued awareness and attention to Haiti’s recovery efforts, and ideas and partners are needed to make this happen.

Please 

join us to support long-term health solutions that meet immediate needs, helping Haiti heal, one bed at a time! Help bring 100 Beds to Haiti!
