Population Services International makes it easier in the developing world to live healthier lives and plan the families they desire. Their areas of focus in health include contraception, HIV and sexually transmitted infections, malaria, non-communicable diseases, water, sanitation, hygiene in addition to others.
Population Services International is locally rooted and globally connected with 8,000 local experts in more than 50 countries. Last year alone they saved the lives of 15,441 mothers, prevented 5,644,440 unintended pregnancies, stopped 254,792 new HIV infections and avoided 273,740 deaths due to diseases like malaria, diarrhea and pneumonia that young children are most vulnerable to.
They run their charity more like a Fortune 500 company taking a business approach to saving lives and complex heath programs while measuring their results. They’re also efficient. For every $1.00 donated to Population Services International, $0.93 goes directly to their programs. It only takes $38.96 to give a mother and her child a year of healthy life.
