Who Are We?
We
operate two not-for-profit organizations.
Our US organization is ROME
Foundation International which is
headquartered in Tampa Florida. Our Haiti
not-for-profit organization (“NGO”) is
Organisation ROME Haiti
which was recently acknowledged as one of
the top 15 NGO’s in Haiti. ROME is the
acronym for Redeployment of Medical
Equipment. Both organizations have
been providing healthcare, healthcare
supplies and healthcare support in Haiti for
over 12 years.
ROME
Foundation International is a qualified
501(c)(3) charity.
Our
current corporate partners are
Axiom Laboratories,
Sonic Healthcare USA,
Meridian Laboratories,
and Airline Ambassadors. These corporate
partners have assisted us over the past 10
years with the establishment in Haiti of
numerous medical clinics, an urgent care
center, two CT scanner centers and one
clinical laboratory.

What Are We Doing To Help Haiti
Earthquake Survivors?
We
have deployed approximately 200 physicians,
nurses and medical assistants to Haiti since
the earthquake devastated Haiti. The
deployment was to an otherwise neglected
area of Port au Prince known as Carrefour.
The
mayor of Carrefour “turned over” to our
organization the area’s sports complex for
our operations. Additional medical personnel
will continue to be deployed indefinitely.
The
Haitian government has given us the
responsibility to coordinate reconstruction
and relief efforts for the city of
Gressier. Gressier
is located near the
epicenter of the earthquake
and has approximately 60,000 homeless
Haitians.

How Can You
Help?
We
desperately need
food, water and
medical supplies. The best way you can help
us is with monetary donations so we can
purchase these much needed items. You may
donate by clicking the "DONATE" button at
the top or bottom of any webpage on this
site, or by
calling Karen Anderson at
727-643-3270.
You
will receive a letter acknowledging your tax
deductible contribution. If you are an
employer, we ask you to consider joining the
many companies around the world that have
provided corporate donations and/or
instituted payroll deduction matching
programs.
You
can also ask your civic organization,
church/temple etc if they want to conduct a
fundraising drive. Finally, you can pass-out
or place our brochures at your business
location.
