- Pignon, Haiti is a small town in the Central Plateau of Haiti, about 40 miles south of Cap-Haitien. Dr. Guy Deve Theodore, M. D., F. A. C. S., founded a small clinic in Pignon, his birthplace, in 1983. This clinic is now a 60-bed hospital with four outlying clinics, operated by the respected Haitian-non-profit organization, Comite de Bienfaisance de Pignon (CBP).
-
- Christian Mission of Pignon, Inc. (CMP) and World Christian Relief Fund, Inc. (WCRF), interdenominational-Christian ministries, have provided medical, logistic and financial support to CBP since the clinic was established.
