Mission & Focus Areas
PIH's mission is to provide a preferential option for the poor in health care. By establishing long-term relationships with sister organizations based in settings of poverty, the organization strives to achieve two overarching goals: to bring the benefits of modern medical science to those most in need of them and to serve as an antidote to despair.
The organization's approach is rooted in both medical and moral imperatives, based on solidarity rather than charity alone. PIH places patients at the center of all care, meeting not only their physical, but also their mental, emotional, and daily needs so that they can recover from illness and maintain good health.
Primary focus areas include:
- Community health programs and primary care
- Treatment of deadly illnesses such as tuberculosis and HIV
- Women's health services
- COVID-19 screening and response
- Health system strengthening and infrastructure development
- Training of health care providers
- Development of effective care delivery models in rural and remote settings
Grantmaking
PIH functions primarily as a direct service provider rather than a traditional grantmaker. However, the organization does provide grants, with typical awards ranging from $5,089 to $40,573,748. Total giving in the most recent fiscal year was $58,192,203.
