 Dr. Gary Gottlieb, Partners In Health in Boston, Massachusetts, United States for Thursday, 22 June 2017 - [MATCH] "Good enough for the poor"

Dr. Paul Farmer said it just a few days ago: Health care that's merely "good enough" will never be good enough for the poor—who need it the most. And with your help, PIH will never settle.
We'll fight each day to bring the best health care to the world's most impoverished people—the same as we demand for our own children, families, and loved ones.  If you believe the world's most vulnerable people deserve its finest health care, then please stand with me and Paul and the millions of people that PIH cares for worldwide. Make your gift of $15 now, and it will be MATCHED to save even more lives everywhere we work.

Thank you for your support. Together, we're going to help a lot of people.

Your gift will be doubled to make twice the lasting impact >> I was 23 years old when I first visited Cange—a destitute squatter settlement in Haiti's Central Plateau. Health care didn't exist there. Diseases like asthma and pneumonia were often death sentences. What would soon become my life's work—bringing quality health care to some of the world's poorest people—came into sharp focus in a place where people had lost their land, and thus their livelihoods. Every day since, I've heard the quarrels, the skeptical voices insisting high-quality health care isn't sustainable in poor countries—that we should settle for care that's "good enough for poor people." But "good enough" will never be good enough for the world's most vulnerable. If you agree, please know that today, your gift to PIH will be DOUBLED—sending twice the crucial health care to the world's poorest families. Please, give $15 now, and double your impact from Haiti to Malawi and everywhere else we go. http://act.pih.org/june-match-17 Today, more than 30 years after my first visit, a PIH teaching hospital stands in that Central Plateau, just a short distance from Cange. The state-of-the-art facility is where mothers give birth, babies get their first vaccines, and people can receive services from cancer therapy to AIDS treatment, from surgical care for physical trauma to mental health services for less visible trauma.This work is proof that cynicism is a moral and intellectual dead end; proof that together, we can change lives for the better, forever, even in the places where it seems hardest.Please, join me to fight for a world in which everyone has health care—no matter where they live, no matter how poor they are. Make your gift of $15 by June 30 and it will help twice as many families in need.
