THE VILLAGE OF GEORGE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT
-Inside the first house built with the happy new owners
George is one of the small villages around Paillant, a typical Haitian village of about 50 homes scattered in the woods. None of these houses has a latrine and most of them have no flooring. Most of the men are farmers and the women take care of their usually 4 to up to 8 children sometimes. There is only one small elementary school in George with only 4 grades and not all the kids can attend although education is free. They still need to afford shoes, books and food.
In May 2010, I met with the people of George and asked them to form 5 committees within themselves to assess the needs of the community so we can help them. This was their response one week later:
-education: George needs a bigger school with a canteen for the children to get at least one meal a day.
- agriculture: they need to have a way to preserve their seeds until the next planting season and also to be able to have some tools.
- livestock: they need to have some cows and goats and they will make sure the babies are distributed to the rest of the population so everyone can benefit.
- economics: they want to be able to set up and control their own village bank and allocate some small loans within the village.
- housing: they will help us prioritize the homes that need to be replaced first.
Each committee has 3 members of men and women.
Our goal at Haiti Help Med is to empower these people to first assess their problems and then find out a solution for them. Haiti Help Med will stand by them, advise them and bring them the necessary help they need to change their life. We will not impose our rules. I told them they need to take their future into their hands. We will give them a hand up and no more hand out!
We are hoping to be able to improve life in the area one village at a time.

Earthquake Relief
What we have done since the earthquake:
- 3 orthopedic missions trips
- 3 medical mission trips
- 1 gynecological mission trip
- Completion of the addition to the hospital in Paillant with an operating room
- Building of the first 2 homes for the poor people in the village of George
- Distribution of tents, clothes, shoes and other small items to the poor.
Haiti has recently been devastated by a recent severe earthquake. As a result, Henri Jabon and Dr Samuel Jean and Ralph Gousse led a team of orthopedists, gynecologist, anesthesiologist and nurses from Florida to Miragoane and Paillant where they were able to help more than 100 injured people. Many of Central Florida Haitian-American Health Care Workers have joined forces with Haiti Help Med to provide long term care to the people in need. Their effort in Miragoane and Paillant will help also in the decentralization process so vital to the rebuilding of a better Haiti.
