Giving Health to Kids

Guyana Help The Kids (GHTK) was established in 2007 and is a registered Canadian Charity with the goal of decreasing the neonatal and infant mortality in developing countries. During the visits of Dr. Narendra Singh and his wife Dr. Shirley Sit to Guyana, they were deeply saddened to learn of the high percentage of neonatal deaths occurring at the Hospi-tals in Guyana. In addition, they saw that the NICUs (Neonatal Intensive Care Units) were poorly equipped and lacked life-saving equipment that is standard in NICUs in Canada.

GHTK is managed by a volunteer Board of Directors and more than ninety (90) percent of funds raised are used for educational programs and equipment purchases for GHTK. Ad-ministrative overhead costs are less ten (10) percent of funds raised. In 2018, the Board decided to expand their outreach in the Caribbean and the program has been warmly received in Antigua. In view of this expansion, the o�cial name of Guyana Help the Kids has changed to “GHTK (Giving Health To Kids)”.

Why should you support GHTK? That is a good question, especially given that you probably receive many requests asking for your help with sponsorship or to buy tickets for special fundraising events. We are asking for 5-minutes of your time to read the following para-graphs which outline brie�y what we do at GHTK and why we believe we are worthy of your sponsorship and time.

Giving Health to Kids

Dr. Singh and Dr. Sit made it their goal to help the country of Dr. Singh’s birth improve on the care and treatment of babies and children by creating the Vision of GHTK “Every Child deserves a Tomorrow.” This could only be done by working with the various government agencies in Guyana, together with the hospitals involved in providing the health care to babies and their families.

GHTK has been fortunate to recruit a dedicated and compassionate Board of Directors who share the vision put forth by Dr. Singh and Dr. Sit. The major focus of GHTK has been to establish a comprehensive education program for local physicians, nurses and other allied healthcare professionals. In addition, a major goal of the Board has been to purchase specialized equipment, in order to elevate the level of neonatal care.

We often don’t realize how fortunate we are in Canada with our healthcare system. It is di�-cult to believe that in some countries things we take for granted here are not available there. The shared vision of GHTK has happened with the full support and involvement of the Minis-try of Health in Guyana, along with the hospitals administrative and medical communities.

It is worth noting that in July 2019, 19 Paediatricians will have successfully completed the Paediatric Residency Program and 70 nurses will have received their neonatal certi�cation.

Since the inception of GHTK, infant mortality has been reduced by 40%.We have raised over half of a million dollars from generous donors and sponsors like you.

Your support is the key to the success of the GHTK. Your gifts fund life-saving equipment and technology, capital improvements and continuing education opportunities, providing dedi-cated hospital physicians and sta� with the necessary tools to give BETTER health to kids.

On behalf of the children, thank you so much for your time and consideration of our request
