History of the 1957 Jaguar Mark 1: Jackie Kennedy’s mother Janet married the immensely rich Hugh Auchincloss on June 21, 1942. The family moved into his forty-six acre Virginia estate, Merrywood. Jackie and her sister Lee settled in their new home and joined the Auchincloss Clan. In early June 1951 Jackie was introduced to congressman JF Kennedy. They celebrated their marriage on September 12, 1953. In 1957 Hugh Auchincloss purchased the fastest luxury sedan at that time, our Jaguar Mark 1. With 210 hp the car reached top speeds of over 120 mph. The car was delivered to Merrywood. Jackie and JFK spent family time and vacation at the Merrywood estate. JFK recovered from two back operations and wrote the Pulitzer prize winning book “Profile of Courage” at Merrywood. Details are unknown, but the Jaguar Mark 1 appeared to be Jackie’s and JFK’s primary vehicle while residing at Merrywood. On November 08, 1961 JFK became the 35th American President and made Jackie the First Lady. During the next two years in the White House, they continued to spend their summer vacations in Merrywood. In 1996 Sotheby’s auctioned the Merrywood estate for $15,000,000.00. View the info brochure online, or download the brochure to share it.

Here’s just one example of how Sister Ann is making an impact in the town of Milot: Building Houses for the Homeless Recently we have built a little house for Kyleen, an orphan girl of eighteen years, who is paralyzed and was living in a shack of a hut with the rain pouring in on her. Kyleen is now very happy living in dignity in her new home and never ceases to praise and thank God every day for all those who have helped her. Presently we are building a house for the Cola family. This house is for a family of eight who live in a tin shed which is held together with rags, rope and rusted tin. The young mother of five children, between the ages of one and ten years, died of cholera and then their bamboo house fell to pieces in the rain storm leaving the little family with no choice but to share the tin shed with their elderly and visually impaired grandparents. I am very excited to see the finished house and the smiles that will bring to the young Cola family and their grandparents. I can get a bed made locally for around $150 US and have done so for a few blind families. So many families lie on old planks with rags as covers. Children often sleep on the rocky ground. I first had to build new homes and then a bed, a table and four chairs; all of which were made by locals. I have built houses recently from donations given by our wonderful donors. Four houses were built for the visually impaired who have been living in dreadful conditions. While the CRUDEM/Hôpital Sacré Coeur community grapples with the overarching problems and administers medical solutions through the hospital’s community outreach program and the annual summer Tufts University Medical School Public Health Clinics, HSC’s Sister Ann Crawley tends to many of the complex issues, one life at a time and one family at a time. On a daily basis, Sister Ann literally meets the poorest, most at risk members of the Milot community where they are—on the streets, in cobbled together homes half the size of an American closet and in the wards of the hospital. With a practiced eye, Sister Ann spots the poorest of the poor and balances the provision of basic needs with individual servings of hope, love and understanding. Hôpital Sacré Coeur (HSC) is the largest private hospital and public health provider for the 225,000 people living in the Milot region of Northern Haiti. For more than 26 years, a unique collaborative relationship has grown and strengthened between CRUDEM and Hôpital Sacré Coeur. Today, Hôpital Sacré Coeur is the only Haitian-run private hospital in Haiti. Its 347 Haitian staff members are supported by a network of U.S. medical professionals, volunteers and resources. Hôpital Sacré Coeur, a government designated Reference Hospital, is one of the Northern Department’s largest employers. In addition to full in-patient services, HSC offers outpatient clinics, full maternity services, has a pediatric wing, dental services, prosthetic workshop, pharmacy and complete laboratory, and provides HIV/AIDS services that include a prevention of mother-to-child transmission program. A nutrition center on the hospital campus cares for malnourished preschool children. Outreach is done through the Community Health Services department with public health nurses and health agents serving five dispensaries in the region and reaching 150,000 people with vaccinations, pre-natal care, basic hygiene and nutrition training, and HIV/AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria, and filariasis treatment. Under the direction of Sister Ann Crawley, many of the poorest of the poor in Milot receive new homes, school tuitions, and food, in a concerted public health outreach effort. In October, 2012 Holy Name Medical Center Foundation, Teaneck, New Jersey became the sole member of The CRUDEM Foundation. CRUDEM’s mission is to, inter alia, improve access to health care services for poor and medically underserved individuals through the solicitation, receipt, management and disbursement of contributions, donations, bequests and devises of funds and other property (real and personal) to hospitals serving the health care needs of such individuals worldwide, including primarily Hôpital Sacré Cœur’s, Milot, Haiti. The CRUDEM Foundation does not itself, directly provide health care services. View The CRUDEM Foundation's 501 c 3 Letter.
