From the blog of one of Vitamin Angels' partners in Haiti, Love A Child:  

A very big thank you to those at Vitamin Angels who have partnered with us to make this vaccination program a great success. With the Vitamin A and Albendazole you have provided, we will reach many children who otherwise would not have the opportunity to receive it. The year-long partnership of Love A Child and Vitamin Angels made this great vision a reality.

Every day we have given vitamin A, Albendazole [antiparasitic] and vaccinated children and pregnant women, some in our clinic, and some through our Health nurses as they walk or take donkeys or whatever is needed to reach these children. 

We are very fortunate to be able to provide Vitamin A and Albendazole to the children to complement our vaccination program. Vitamin A, essential for normal growth and development, is given to all children when they are entered in the vaccination program.

The Minister of Health has chosen Love A Child as the Center for Vaccination in the "Ouest" Zone of Haiti where Love A Child Village and our project villages are located. In our first three months of the vaccination program we vaccinated 592 women ages 15-49 and 650 children through age five. We have accepted a large task and will see it and the protection it provides grow rapidly.

Arenise, our Social Worker/RN, welcomed in the International Week of Vaccination with the International Committee and spent time training health workers so they can vaccinate women and children in very remote areas.

Love A Child partnering with Vitamin Angels means our health workers will provide vaccinations to all the children in this zone of Haiti including the VERY remote mountain areas where there are no medical clinics. Thank you, Vitamin Angels!  We couldn't do this without you!

Through field partners like Love a Child, Vitamin Angels reaches over 1.2 million children in Haiti with vitamin A. To support our Operation 2020 vitamin A program in Haiti and worldwide, you can donate here>>.
