Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity.“ – Hippocrates In the light of todays WORLD HEALTH DAY, we want to highlight the importance of access to primary healthcare and the great positive impact of three health organizations that we support: >> Meds & Food for Kids (MFK) in Haiti: MFK produces fortified peanut-based medicines known as Ready to Use Foods (RUFs) to prevent and cure child malnutrition. >> mothers2mothers (m2m) in Sub-saharan Africa: m2m prevents babies from contracting HIV through mother-to-child transmission, keeps mothers and babies living with HIV/AIDS alive and healthy by increasing their access to health-sustaining medical care, and empowers mothers living with HIV/AIDS, enabling them to fight stigma in their communities and to live positive and productive lives. >> Mi Doctorcito (Por ti, Familia) in Peru: Mi Doctorcito is a chain of primary healthcare clinics providing a solution to the inefficient and income restricting care service distribution in Peru.
