Kumusta! (Hello!)

We are the Philippine Health Initiative, a small, student-run nonprofit aimed at reducing healthcare inequity in the Philippines. Our programs are rooted in the idea of "balikbayan" (literally, "returning home"). One of these programs is the Medical Donation Program, where we collect near-expiration or expired medical supplies and ship them in boxes to high-need, under-resourced medical facilities in the Philippines.

Your donation would help us cover shipping costs for these balikbayan boxes and provide financial support for future programs that will similarly benefit in-need Filipinos.

Any amount, no matter how small or large, helps! Maraming salamat! (Thank you very much!)

The Philippine Health Initiative is dedicated to bridging cultural divides and promoting healthcare equity by empowering our community through collaboration, volunteerism, and cultural exchange. Rooted in the Filipino-American experience, we strive to foster a spirit of compassion and a shared commitment to support the underserved while celebrating the richness of our diverse heritage.
