Haiti
In keeping with our mission of providing life-altering medical care to children around the world, Everyone’s Child International made a donation to Partners in Health, a non-profit organization that has been working in Haiti for over 20 years. This gift has been restricted to providing for the medical needs of children. We are thankful for the generous support of donors who enabled this outreach to the children of Haiti.
Roselor
4 1/2 year old from Haiti
We are also pleased to report that Everyone’s Child International is working to bring 4 ½ year old Roselor from Haiti for cardiac surgery. ECI was contacted by a mission team from St. Anthony ’s Church in Morris, Indiana over a year ago. Since then ECI has been working to arrange for the care she so desperately needs. We are partnering with Rotary International’s Gift of Life Program and St. Francis Hospital in Roslyn, New York , where she will have surgery. 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.
Wushuang
13 year old from China
Wushuang has undergone her first surgery and is doing very well. She continues to amaze everyone who meets her with her positive, “can-do” attitude and zest for life. Some highlights of her Christmas vacation included sled riding, tubing, downhill skiing and ice skating!
Jonathan
2 1/2 year old from Panama
Jonathan returned home to Panama on January 5th, accompanied by ECI board member Mary Dickey. Mary reports that the reunion with his family was a wonderful sight to behold. This week we received an update from Jonathan's family that he is doing well and has adjusted to life back at home.

ECI's Fundraiser in Batesville was a great success.
February 2009
Since the October 2007 fundraising event in Batesville, IN, Coming Together as a Community to Make a Difference in the World, quite a lot has happened. Paulette, from Costa Rica, has returned home…healthy, happy and hopeful! Three additional children were brought to the US for treatment at Shriners Hospital and stayed with host families in Cincinnati, Ohio and Batesville, Indiana. They have all returned to their home countries grateful for the healing care they could have never accessed on their own. A specialized wheelchair has also been delivered to a sick child in Ecuador.
Children have been helped because Paulette’s case sparked heartfelt passion to continue this type of work. We are extremely grateful for donor contributions. Everyone’s Child International has been incorporated in the State of Indiana as a 501(c)(3) organization.
ECI has also created a Facebook network to unite more people interested in providing life-saving care to children. Click Here to join the community and begin discussions on how you can take part in your own geographic area:
