Program — Healthcare

Healthcare

We support primary care where there is none — clinics, community health workers, maternal and child health, clean supply, and the unglamorous logistics of keeping medicine in stock. Proximity is the intervention.

Approach

Care nearby

Clinics and community health workers that bring primary care within reach — because distance is, too often, the diagnosis.

Mothers and children

Maternal and child health at the center, where timely, proximate care saves the most lives for the least cost.

The supply that stays in stock

Cold chains, clean supply, and the unglamorous logistics that keep medicine on the shelf when a patient arrives.

In the field

The last mile is the whole journey

Community health workers, equipped and supplied, brought care to villages a day's travel from the nearest clinic. Proximity did what no new hospital could.

Shelves of clearly labelled medical supplies in a clinic store room.

In stock, on time

A redesigned supply chain held essential medicines in stock through the rainy season — the difference, often, between a clinic that treats and one that turns patients away.
