  • Description: The Friends of HaiTi is a volunteer organization that strives to improve life for the Haitian people. The Friends of HaiTi is a collaborative effort to support of the LaCroix New Testament Mission. Haiti is one of the poorest countries in the Western Hemisphere. More than two thirds of the people are unemployed and the average family income is $250.00 (US) per year. Our connection with the LaCroix New Testament Mission began in 1997, when Andrea Loether, a Pittsburgh area nurse, visited the mission along with gynecologist Dr. Dan Lattanzi to offer health care to a community that had never seen a doctor or nurse before. The first “clinic” was held under a tree using wooden benches as the exam tables and pharmacy.
