I have been volunteering RIchmond (not yet in Haiti) with Midwives for Haiti for a couple months now. I could not be more proud of the work that they do, and am happy to be plugged into whatever projects or tasks the organization needs to help keep moving forward. The work they are doing in Haiti is so important, and so beneficial to a growing network of communities - I can't wait to finish nursing school and head down!

One of the best overseas aid programs one could support! Amazing U.S. midwives go to Haiti to train midwives there. They in turn help women who would otherwise have no prenatal care and no help with their deliveries. I have a midwife friend who goes to Haiti every year, and she shares her experiences and photographs with the rest of us in our Quaker meeting. This is the real deal.

I learned of this wonderful organization through a midwife friend who went with them to Haiti. MFH has a clear mission and integrity -- two of the most important attributes that make a non-profit worthy of support.

I have volunteered as a nurse midwife clinical instructor on 4 trips in 3 years. I am so very pleased to see constant improvement in quality of student education, curriculum content and continuing education of graduates. I see immense gratitude and respect from the community (and now the Haitian government, too) toward Midwives for Haiti and their graduates. ~Bobbi. Fort Mill, SC

Ever since I volunteered with Midwives for Haiti in 2006, I have been impressed with the quality of the work they are doing. They have grown quickly and stayed true to their mission. They provide salaries for many Haitians, and most of the money goes directly into services to Haitians. My volunteer experience definitely changed the way I view my work on a daily basis, and I am sure it has done the same for many midwife volunteers. I love the way we use our volunteers to empower the Haitian people to help themselves.

Haiti has the highest maternal-infant mortality rate in the Western Hemisphere. Midwives for Haiti was established in 2004 to educate Haitian nurses to become skilled midwives. In the beginning, professional midwives volunteered to teach midwifery skills but now they are used to augment classroom and clinical teaching as much of the teaching is now done by experienced graduates of the program. Midwives for Haiti assures volunteer safety, providing comfortable housing and meals along with translators to help with both spoken and cultural transactions. It was sobering to witness the deprivations experienced on a daily basis by Haitians I met. At the same time, it was spiritually uplifting to encounter the courage and determination I experienced when observing Haitians working hard towards improving their lives. Although midwives are essential volunteers, there are other niches for non-professionals to fill: volunteering at orphanages, feeding centers, and community improvement projects.

As a 1st time volunteer last year I was amazed to so quickly be utilized and involved with Haitian midwives, student midwives and mothers and get right in to the heart of midwives For Haiti and so close to Haitian life. I planned my return even before I left
