Operation Sunshine

Annual checkups open a child’s world to the lifetime of possibilities that come with good health. But those yearly well-checks are not a given for children in some countries. After seeing the struggles of Haitian orphanages to get essential health care services for children after the 2010 earthquake, we created Operation Sunshine.

Partnering with the Florida-based non-profit My Neighbor’s Children, Operation Sunshine sends AdventHealth volunteers on medical relief missions to Haiti to conduct annual pediatric checkups for kids living in orphanages and children’s homes. When children are sick, Operation Sunshine ensures they receive care at Haiti Adventist Hospital. There, they can access services like physician consultations, laboratory tests, medications and hospital stays, if needed.
