Caring4Haiti

Caring4Haiti is a mission project of HillSong Church. Its purpose is to find ways to help meet the basic needs of the Haitian medical team who stayed behind in the earthquake’s rubble to care for their fellow citizens.

Caring4Haiti was inspired by Cathi Sander, a physician who is part of the HillSong family. She traveled to Haiti on a medical mission in late January 2010 with the NC Baptist Men to care for earthquake victims.

Cathi also witnessed the daily challenges her new Haitian friends faced in treating the endless number of patients seeking care. Caring4Haiti was created to respond to those needs. Donated funds will be used to purchase tents, cots, bedding, canopies, food and medical supplies for the native Haitians who are working around the clock under very difficult circumstances to care for the sick and wounded.

First Shipment to Haiti

On Friday, February 19, 2010, Cathi and HillSong pastor Rob Tennant went to RDU at 5:30 am to meet a plane taking another medical team to Haiti. Caring4Haiti sent its first shipment of supplies back to Haiti on that plane, including: tents, cots, a canopy, dried fruits, nonperishable foods and cash to purchase fresh food in Haiti.

A special thanks  goes to Great Outdoor Provision Company for partnering with HillSong to provide the outdoor supplies at a generous discount and even donating additional items.

A
vivid description of her time in Haiti and unfolding opportunities

“After a week of treating patients in Haiti and seeing incredible suffering yet amazing gratitude from those we cared for, I returned home and asked God what else I could do to make a difference. He answered: HELP THOSE WHO SERVE. To me, that meant finding practical ways to deliver basic supplies to the Haitian medical team who no longer had homes or even paying jobs themselves but chose to stay behind and care for their countrymen.“

 

Tony Roche Goes to Haiti
