On Nov. 13, 2000, Danita Estrella heard a doctor yell out, “Has anyone fed this child today?” His cry went unanswered. Entirely overwhelmed by the list of patients demanding his attention, the doctor overlooked the knocked-over juice in a nearby crib, which was causing ants to crawl across the child’s face to feast on the spill.

Her name was Erika.

Estrella, founder and CEO of Danita’s Children, moved to Haiti in 1999, with a few suitcases and an audacious dream: to rescue and care for Haitian orphans.

The above account was one of Estrella’s first experiences attempting to find sufficient medical care on the island—a medical clinic that was five hours away. She had brought Guy, one of the orphan boys in her care who she feared was dying, to the facility because no one could help him. This was her only hope.
