How we got started....
The concept for this foundation was conceived by the successful recovery of Paulette, a teenager from Costa Rica, who with help from a network of caring individuals, was transformed from a dying bedridden teenager to a happy and productive young, working adult.
Here briefly is her story:
Paulette was a 16 year old girl, who had survived a near fatal illness, staphylococcal purpura fulminans. Her mother was told her daughter probably had less than 72 hours to live. Surprisingly, she beat those odds and survived, but after nine months in a hospital, she returned home with open wounds on 90% of her body.

Roselor
6 year old from Haiti
We are also pleased to report that Everyone’s Child International is working to bring 6 year old Roselor from Haiti for cardiac surgery. ECI was contacted by a mission team from St. Anthony ’s Church in Morris, Indiana over two years ago. Once the earthquake occurred in Haiti, it became much more difficult to make arrangements. Since then ECI has been working to arrange for the care she so desperately needs. In addition, our friends at Partners in Health have been assisting to acquire a Haitian birth certificate, passport and visa to get Roselor here as soon as possible.
