The Women's Global Cancer Alliance (WGCA)
WGCA was founded by a retired gynecological oncologist from Louisville who went to Haiti after the catastrophic earthquake of January 12, 2010, with Doctors Without Borders. He learned that cervical cancer death rates in Haiti are higher than any other country in the Western Hemisphere. Using his own resources and raising money from others, he opened a clinic staffed with nurses trained in the nursing school in Gonaives, Haiti. His goal continues to be to ease the burden of cancer in one of the hardest hit countries in the world. The clinic has screened approximately 3,000 women. People living in poor countries such as Haiti do not go to doctors unless they are very sick, and in the case of cervical cancer, that is too late to prevent death.
