Our Mission

Children's Health Ministries fights to eliminate preventable infant and child deaths and restore hope to impoverished Haitian families by providing top quality pediatric healthcare and nutrition services in the name of Jesus.

Investing in Haitians Serving Haitians

CHM believes in empowering the Haitian people to be the directors of their own recovery. Our clinic is led and staffed entirely by Haitian nationals, many who also live in the community we serve. Inspired by the love of Jesus and their country, our Haitian team delivers dignified, compassionate, and culturally relevant care to one of the poorest communities in Haiti.

I'm feeling heartbroken today at the stories we are hearing from our patients.

This is M, she is 2.5 years old and suffering from malnutrition. She is one of 4 children. Her family had to flee their home in the Delmas region of Port au Prince as a result of gang violence and fled to a family member's home in Carrefour.

M's father is deceased and her mother had a stroke and now cannot use her left arm. When they fled Delmas, M's mom sent the oldest sister (14 years old) to another family member. They just found out that the girl has been repeatedly sexually assaulted in that home. She will be coming back to her mom in Carrefour.

M's mom was working as a beautician doing hair, but with only one functional arm she can no longer do that. They don't have enough food to even eat a single meal a day.

I am speechless to describe the amount of hardship this family has endured and the trauma and horror they have witnessed. Even M at just 2 years old has probably seen worse things than we can imagine.

We need to give this family food support, but our food program is literally FULL - overflowing, really. We need to continue providing food to children and families facing immeasurable hardship like M's, and we need your help to do that. Without you, we will have to begin turning away families like this one. It is just unimaginable for us to say no in the face of such need. Please will you help these kids simply EAT?

Edited to add: It costs about $45/month to sponsor food for a family. Would you consider sponsoring a family in need or give a one-time gift to support the food program? You can give here: . Thank you on behalf of those we serve. 🩵 ... See MoreSee Less

UPDATE: Thank you everyone for praying. Dr. Steveen and his family were able to find safety and they are relocating to another area of the city that will hopefully be safer. He shared this message: “Thanks for all your prayer today, at each problem I saw the hand of God sending some one to help me.”

URGENT PRAYERS NEEDED! The gang violence in Port au Prince has reached the home of our beloved staff pediatrician. He and his family are RIGHT NOW fleeing their home for safety. PLEASE PRAY that they can find safe shelter! ... See MoreSee Less

Three months ago, 7-month-old Kervenson arrived at our malnutrition program severely underweight. Today, we're celebrating 5 precious pounds gained, thanks to therapeutic nutrition with Medika Mamba.

That might not sound like a lot of weight, but for a baby fighting malnutrition, it's life-changing. Each packet of Mamba, a nutrient-rich peanut paste, has helped Kervenson grow stronger day by day. His transformation reminds us that simple solutions can make profound differences. Every child deserves a chance to thrive, and with proper nutrition, they can! ... See MoreSee Less
