Long-term partnership creates long-term change

Start a monthly donation to begin a true partnership based on solidarity, not charity. Together, we commit for the long-term, saving lives now and building ever-improving health systems hand-in-hand with unjustly impoverished communities.

 

Your monthly contributions:

  • Save lives right now by funding urgent medical care
  • Build a brighter future through health system strengthening
  • Allow for better planning and long-term impact

 

How your partnership changes the world

A mother visiting a clinic with her child

Deliver care to people who need it most…

Susan was 17-years-old and pregnant in rural Sierra Leone—one of the world's most dangerous places to give birth. Her own mother died giving birth to her.

She safely underwent the surgery at her local PIH-supported public hospital, where monthly donors’ steady contributions are producing major improvements in care. . . .

...and change global policy with our example

Susan’s story is one of millions, and the impact of her example is global.

First, we prove high-quality health care is possible anywhere. Then, we use that example to enact global change and teach organizations around the world not only that delivering health care as a human right is possible anywhere, but also exactly how to do it. . . .

Monthly donors make it possible

From Mount Pleasant, SC, Gail became a monthly donor because each of her steady donations builds upon the previous ones, and over time her partnership is far more powerful than sporadic charitable giving would be.

“[I give monthly because] I know it helps for the organization to have income that is regular.” . . .

"With rare exceptions, all of your most important achievements on this planet will come from working with others—or, in a word, partnership."

- Dr. Paul Farmer

Behind the name Paul’s Partners

Dr Paul Farmer

The community of monthly donors who make our global impact possible and deliver lifesaving health care to people and families most in need is called “Paul’s Partners.”

 

It’s named after PIH’s co-founder, the late Dr. Paul Farmer. As a medical student, he joined hands with colleagues in Haiti to begin to deliver health care as a human right in a small rural settlement. Nearly 40 years later, those first partnerships have grown into a world-changing team of 19,000 people, building health systems and delivering care across a dozen countries.

 

The impact of his example will be felt for generations, and through us, his partners, his unfinished work continues.
