DOMINICAN REPUBLIC MEDICAL PARTNERSHIP (DRMP)
The Dominican Republic Medical Partnership (DRMP) of Village Church has provided nearly 25 years of healthcare and health education to children and adults living in the impoverished bateyes (communities of Haitian sugarcane workers and their families) in the Dominican Republic. We promote sustainable healthcare efforts with our Dominican partner organizations.
DRMP provides medical care, ongoing hypertension management, and life-changing surgeries. Our health education programs focus on topics such as disease prevention and good nutrition. The ultimate goal of the DRMP is to provide life-saving healthcare and health education that people need in order to break free from the cycle of poverty. Village Church supports this because access to quality healthcare is not limited to our nation's borders but only by our own sense of justice and compassion. The DRMP's mission is shaped by the gospel that bids us to love our neighbors, both near and far, as we love ourselves. |
