Project Details
At Healing Hands, we believe no one should live without love or water! Now, in the remote village of Coup Mardi Gras, Haiti, more than 1,200 precious souls will know God’s love because of your gift of clean water. Much like the Samaritan woman in John 4, when these people come to draw clean drinking water, they will also have the opportunity to encounter “the living water.” As always, God does the healing, but He is using your hands (and feet) to do it. Keep walking, McKenzie! Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Galatians 6:9

The Difference It Made!
Located next to this well is the community clinic for Coupe Mardi Gras ran by Dr. Charles. Since Healing Hands has begun drilling wells in the area, Dr. Charles has seen a drastic decrease in the incoming cases for cholera. “Before Healing Hands came to our community, it was difficult to find water and often it was not clean and needed to be treated which not everyone could financially afford to do. I regularly saw many cases of cholera and diarrhea, especially in young children. Now that we have wells in our community, we have clean water and even the most chronic cases of diarrhea in infants have stopped. Thank you God and thank you Healing Hands!” When clean water is accessible, not only is disease reduced, but children are able to return to school and parents are able to focus on providing for their families. This is why we say, “It all begins with water.” And that water begins with you!
