The Tia Foundation
United States of America
Using a teach them to fish model the Tia Foundation trains and equips community health workers elected by their fellow villagers in remote parts of rural Mexico where there are no doctors. We accomplish this permanent sustainable solution for less than $5 a person because the local governments take over continuing education and resupply of the robust medical kits each health worker is given. Tia currently serves more than 198000 villagers. Our health workers provide vaccinations deliver babies manage chronic diseases like diabetes and offer preventative education. An unintended outcome of programs like Tia s has been a drop in immigration by as much as 400% to the U.S.
