Unlocking healthcare, saving lives
Our Mission: Building health equity in Guatemala.
Our Vision: Everyone — no matter where they were born or what language they speak — has access to high quality health care.
For our year-end Community campaign, our Board of Directors is matching all donations up to $140,000!
TIME REMAINING TO DOUBLE YOUR IMPACT
Community Based
At the center of all we do are Maya Community Health Workers, who understand our patients’ cultures and speak their languages.
Research Informed
We develop groundbreaking, practical solutions to close critical gaps in care. This ensures that money and resources are well-spent.
Women Powered
Supporting women to have control over their lives and health is at the core of our work. 97% of the patients are women and girls, and 85% of our staff are women.
Since 2007, we have been advancing lasting changes in healthcare delivery in rural Guatemala so that high-quality care is within reach for everyone.
We provide comprehensive care in the communities where patients live and in the Mayan languages that they are most comfortable speaking. Our program areas include child nutrition and development; women’s health, including maternal-infant health; and chronic disease.
