Impact Global Health Alliance’ Global Programs 2018 Score Card is here! The purpose of this score card is to analyze the overall effectiveness of Impact Global Health Alliance’ global programs. This is achieved by providing quick statistics across four categories: program performance, community outreach, financial sustainability, and management effectiveness. Below are some highlights from each category.

Rounding out 2018, Impact Global Health Alliance Global reached a significant milestone. With the support of our partners in the Ministry of Health of Guatemala, we recently began the dramatic expansion of our work into 31 new communities, creating full territorial coverage in three territories. This will nearly triple the reach of our work in these municipalities from 8,038 people to 22,877.
Impact Global Health Alliance Global hopes to expand upon the success found in 2018, as we continue to partner with underserved communities to make measurable and sustainable improvements in their health and wellbeing.
