A Little Bit About Giving Children Hope

Posted November 13, 2009 - 5:31pm by Tanzanian Women...

Giving Children Hope is an organization with a simple mission: gathering resources and placing them where needed. In the words of the organization itself, “We connect indigenous community leaders in need of resources with grassroots efforts around the world to secure and deliver needed supplies.” They partner with nonprofit organizations and support projects that help children, serve the poor, facilitate family stability, and promote economic independence.

Brazil is working towards universal and free access to all prevention and management resources for diabetes based on the principles of primary health care and thus health systems strengthening.
