Layered Micro Documentaries 

"Piti, Piti" is a micro documentary about a non-profit organizations efforts in the mountains of Grand-Bois Haiti.  "ServeHAITI"  founded in 2001 as a small triage in the back of a church, was born out of the collaborative efforts of volunteers from the United States and Canada. With a desire to break the cycle of temporary regional interventions in the region. The goal has always been to provide the necessary resources, to empower the people of Grand-Bois to build and sustain a healthy and economically viable community for themselves.

​

Through the hard work and commitment of volunteers and the generous support of the St. Vincent de Paul Society of Sacred Heart Church in Atlanta, GA and many other donors, ServeHAITI built the two-story St. Vincent de Paul Health Center featured in this film, opening its doors in June 2005.

​

The Center is the only source for healthcare in the region. It offers primary and acute medical services, dental and malnutrition care, perinatal and obstetrics, pharmaceutical and community health education services.

Under the leadership of Dr. Bourgouin (“Dr. Leo”), the St. Vincent de Paul Health Center now serves more than 16,000 patients annually. ServeHAITI employs over 50 Haitian medical and support personnel who see patients 24 hours/day, 365 days/year.
