Description
Progressive Health Worldwide (PHWW) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization with a mission to have the biggest impact on children’s health per dollar spent. PHWW believes this means saving children in the developing world from dying of treatable causes such as malnutrition and tuberculosis. To that end, PHWW runs a mobile pediatric TB clinic in an impoverished, rural region of Karnataka, India, in partnership with a local relief hospital, and with the support of 240 volunteers from area villages. We are currently expanding to launch a sustainable agriculture development project with the community our program serves.
