Our Mission

The Fund for Global Health is a social profit organization. We are a philanthropic agency seeking improvement in social indicators rather than monetary profit, but we take a business-like approach, working to achieve the greatest possible impact per dollar invested. In short, our driving mission is to provide the maximum possible health benefit to vulnerable communities.

Providing rural communities with access to high-quality health care is a key priority for the Fund for Global Health. Rural communities in developing countries often face severe health care constraints, we are working to change this by developing innovative strategies for health care delivery to rural communities.

Focus On Service Delivery

To estimate how much U.S. global health aid funds actual service delivery to individual patients, Fund for Global Health conducted research into four U.S. disease programs.

Comprehensive Primary Healthcare Delivery

Comprehensive primary health care, the first point of contact for people with health concerns, is the foundation of a strong health system.

Accountability in U.S. Global Health Aid

USAID has many indicators for measuring what goes into a project and what is achieved. The chosen indicators don’t all measure important health outcomes, however, and the whole system could be simplified with fewer indicators that focus more effectively on health outcomes.
