About Damien House

Damien House is a residential hospital for over 60 Hansen’s patients, and in addition treats a roster of around 700 outpatients. Quality medical care is provided seven days
a week, twenty-four hours a day. With the help of donations to
the US-based Damien House organization, the staff is also
able to provide patients with dental care, physical therapy,
sanitary services, medication, and three well-balanced hot
meals every day. Additionally, Damien House has a community
outreach program that helps those who have been treated
and cured to secure a home, fi nd work, and participate in
community activities so that they may return to living full lives.

The work of Damien House extends far beyond the hospital’s
walls. The staff makes regular visits within Guayaquil and
in remote villages, providing public education about the cause and curability of Hansen’s Disease and spreading optimism for its eventual elimination.

Through this organization, Sister Annie Credido has brought hope and dignity to the lives of many.  Please help her continue to help others by making a donation.
