Capital Campaign: Dominican Republic

One Patient. One Family. One World: Campaign for the Dominican Republic

Expanding to Serve More

To realize our vision of a world with safe, timely, and accessible surgical care, we will open a new surgery center in the Dominican Republic in 2022. It is a deliberate and prudent strategic decision to address a great need amount the Dominican and Haitian populations.  Healthcare, particularly surgery, is widely inaccessible and not affordable to the poor.

We are building on our model in Honduras, partnering with the local NPH home in a country with political stability and strong support from the government. One World Surgery Dominican Republic also will include a primary care clinic to deliver essential preventative care – avoiding costly illnesses and diseases – and a surgery center providing the pre- and post-operative care desperately needed. We will create the same responsible, caring environment we have in Honduras, building up and supporting the community, and giving us the opportunity to bring medical mission trips to the Dominican Republic, further spreading the passion to serve.

Partnering for Growth

Philanthropy will continue to play a vital role in sustaining and growing our operations. We have embarked on a $7 million capital campaign for construction, ongoing operational support, and seeking in-kind gifts and sponsorships. Thanks to leadership gifts, we are over halfway to our  goal. Find out more below on how you can contribute to the campaign.

Witnessing Progress

The construction of the medical center continues to develop daily. See the photos below to watch how the site develops from the original designs and an open field into a transformative center for care.
