Helping the people of Cité Soleil with sustainable, community-driven development
We are very thankful to have received 55,454 Aeroplan Miles through Aeroplan’s member donation program in 2016. These points will be put towards supporting the cost of bringing supplies and equipment to Haiti.
If you are interested in helping us achieve our goal, check out our Aeroplan donation page. There is no cost to donate your points and Aeroplan will “top-up” any donation by 10%!
With donated Shoppers Optimum Points we have purchased an automated blood pressure cuff (top), and a “touchless” thermometer (bottom). They are now a part of the Helping Haiti Medical Clinic’s triage area (middle).In January 2016 Helping Haiti partnered with Shoppers Drug Mart to enable Canadians to donate their Optimum points to Helping Haiti. Since then we have received many donations – ranging from 2 points to 60,000 points. Including Shoppers Drug Mart’s initial donation of 198,000 (a value of $350), we have received a total of 508,139 Points (as of January 3rd, 2017). This has worked out to almost $1000 for us to spend on medical and first aid supplies at Shoppers.
Update: As of January 1, 2018, Shoppers Drug Mart customers will no longer have the option to donate their loyalty points to charity.

Help our team in Cite Soleil support the local population as they work towards recovering from the devastating Hurricane Matthew. Cite Soleil is located at sea level and suffered damage from Matthew’s heavy winds, rains and storm surge. The population will shoulder a tremendous amount of sickness due to flooding and the lack of proper sanitation. If you’re able to help us afford the medications and other supplies we will need for our staff to treat the population, please help by donating on our DONATE NOW page.
