The MoU will enable the Clergy Gaskov Foundation to establish a comprehensive network of healthcare providers in each department of the country. Underserved patients will be able to access primary, pediatric, OBGYN and dental care all year round. The GCF has already yielded results with the construction of the Fonfrede Clinic in Les Cayes. In addition to this health facility, the GCF intends to create hospital centers throughout the country.

For its part, the MHAVE, in conjunction with the MSPP, will facilitate administrative procedures for the customs clearance of medical devices and assess the standardization of sanitary facilities and the quality of medicines.

Since its inception in 1999, the Gaskov Clergé Foundation has led multiple Medical Missions that have served thousands of underserved individuals in Les Cayes, Haiti.
