Maine Walks with Haiti

For more than a decade, Konbit Sante has hosted the Maine Walks with Haiti 5K walk/run in Portland, Maine, to build a sustainable health system in northern Haiti. It is our largest annual fundraiser, and its success is essential to funding our work throughout the year. 

In 2020, we replaced the event with a virtual fundraiser, We Walk with Haiti. The event will be virtual again this year as we continue to recover from and accommodate for COVID. Participants from all over the U.S. and the world are encouraged to get involved and spread the word! With your support, KS can continue our work.

Konbit Sante partners with the Ministry of Health in Haiti and with four Haitian healthcare facilities—two hospitals and two health centers. We support their efforts to provide high-quality care to their community by procuring and shipping needed supplies, medications, and equipment; providing training and joint problem solving; supporting research to improve delivery of care; strengthening community outreach and immunizations; providing funding for facilities improvements and construction; and much more. Funds raised from We Walk with Haiti will help ensure that this work continues.

     For 2022: We Walk with Haiti
