Since 2005, the West Tennessee Haiti Partnership (WTHP), an agency of the Diocese of West Tennessee, has supported initiatives in Haiti, starting with St. Paul’s School in Montrouis and, since 2008, focusing on St. Vincent’s Center for Handicapped Children in Port-au-Prince. WTHP raises funds to provide medicines, vitamins, food, and clean water, depending on local conditions.
Education
We support the educational needs of St. Vincent’s Center for Handicapped Children in Port-au-Prince and other learning institutions by providing academic supplies, scholarships, assistance with special renovation projects, and more.
Food
We participate in efforts to provide balanced and quality food for less-fed children and adults.
Healthcare
Despite ongoing political violence in Haiti, WTHP continues to support the medical clinic at St. Vincent's by funding the salaries of a physical therapist and a medical doctor for regular visits and covering the cost of medicines and vitamins.
