Urgent Update: Protecting Our Patients' Access to Life-Saving Care

By Alka Subramanian | Director

A health check up in progress

Recent changes in U.S. foreign aid policy have created an urgent crisis for our HIV and healthcare programs in Zambia. The health of children and families living with HIV in Zambia is at risk especially if a continuous supply of antiretroviral medication is not ensured. Any disruptions in the supply of HIV meds can result in a drop in adherence which is dangerous as people living with HIV can develop drug resistance.

We are taking swift action by:

Ensuring that ARV medications are available for uninterrupted treatment.
Coordinating with Zambian health authorities at the national level.
Prevent any gaps in patient care. While we have short-term solutions in place, we are developing strategies for long-term sustainability.

How you can help:

Advocate with congressional representatives to protect HIV medication access from disruption.
Share this information with others passionate about global health.
Donate generously as 100% of your contributions go directly to patient care.

We remain committed to our mission and will keep you updated.

Thank you!

Provision of cholera meds and education
