To participate in the Fèt ak Sante initiative:

Step 1:
Assemble the Healthy Birth Kit Putting together a healthy birth kit is easy, fun and can be enjoyed by all ages and groups. It is very important not to vary from the exact contents of this kit in any way. Each of the kits should be identical with no additional or extra items!

In a Hefty ® "one-zip" zip-lock bag assemble the following items:

ICC’s hope is that every mother will deliver her baby with trained support and professional care, but the reality is that many will struggle with their delivery isolated and alone. Healthy birth kits, containing a few very simple items including soap, sterile razor blades and umbilical tape, ensure that each mother had the rudimentary tools to complete a healthy birth.

International Child Care makes every effort to purchase items locally to stimulate the economies in Haiti and the Dominican Republic. We also try to keep our costs down by avoiding expensive overseas shipment when possible. Because of this, we are only able to accept a few specific types of donated items. Please note that the acceptance policy is subject to change at the discretion of the ICC National Directors, based on current program needs.

At International Child Care, we believe that children can be real and effective partners in missions. To encourage this, we developed the Child to Child mission curriculum to help children become “mission minded” as they follow God’s call to serve others in love.

Each installment in the Child to Child curriculum series contains five complete lesson plans full of ideas for learning together, including:

Are you a college or high school student who wants to make a difference in the world? This is the place for you! Youth Power is a branch of International Child Care that is run by youth for youth. Youth Power members are dedicated to helping ICC with its mission by speaking to interested parties about our experiences and passion, getting other youth involved with the organization, and fundraising for Youth Power projects.

International Child Care, funded by the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), presents LIFECYCLE-a fun-filled, dynamic program aimed at educating students Grade 7 and up about the importance of global interdependence. Lifecycle provides teachers and students with the opportunity to make a difference in the lives of children, in Haiti and the Dominican Republic.

We invite you to be transformed this year…

Take a trip to Haiti and/or the Dominican Republic and learn, first hand, about the power of God's love at work in the mission field. At International Child Care, we believe that the first step toward change is understanding, and we invite you to take that step as a member of a Mission Education Encounter Team (MEET).
