Sponsor a Covid-19 Bed at St. Luke’s Hospital

With the peak of the Covid-19 infections still ahead of Haiti, there is growing concern that there will not be enough beds for the sick.  Father Rick has made a special appeal specifically for the purchase of 50 beds for the Covid unit.  The St. Luke’s team has identified beds that will meet criteria for both the comfort of the ailing patient and the portability to move when necessary. We have a shipment leaving for Haiti in the next two weeks that will get the beds to St. Luke's in a timely manner.  The cost of each bed is $60.  If you feel moved to sponsor one or more beds for the Covid-19 unit, kindly click below and you will be forwarded to the St. Luke’s website.  Please indicate “Covid-19 bed” in the special purpose section of the donation form.  As always, we are extremely grateful for your support for our mission.  God bless.

With a 40-bed unit, the St Luke Family Hospital of the St Luke Foundation, was one of the first health institutions in Port-au-Prince to be prepared on the front-line against Covid-19. With a team of 40 health professionals, risking our lives, we do everything in our capacity to medically treat and psychologically support those infected. Despite our limited resources, we are in the process of creating extra space to increase the number of beds to 80, and even more over time as need dictates, to welcome and care for more people as they become infected with the virus.
