Follow on Google News | Nine Million People of Haiti Are In Need of Medical CareHaiti still struggles to recover after the 2010 earthquake, leaving many without basic healthcare.
A staggering 96% of Haitians lack basic healthcare coverage. To bring awareness of the desperate need for medical staff, supplies, and adequate accommodations, Episode 11, has partnered with Lumiere Medical Ministries (LMM) to create a short film emphasizing the current needs and communicate the projected needs of the future. The film will begin principle photography in Haiti on Aug. 5th, 2015, and will continue stateside throughout the month of August. The scope of the project is to highlight the needs of the native people, without lessening the dignity of the citizens. “We want to capture very organic images while there. It’s our job to allow the viewer of the video to see what day-to-day life is like, and to show the needs of today and to uncover what those needs will be next year and the year after, and so on”, says Randy Davis, the film’s Director. Hank Haskins, the CEO of LMM has a vision of continued service to the people of Haiti. His passion for helping others is evident from the first time that you meet him. During the preproduction planning, Hank stated: “Through continued support from community volunteers and corporate donors, we’ll continue to help those people. They need us and honestly, we get much more in return that what we could ever give them. This film can help communicate that fact”.
