We are excited to have Partners In Health join in marketing their causes on buya.org. Partners In Health, started by Paul Farmer works diligently to bring needed services to the most remote parts of Haiti and other parts of the world. The PIH Vision: Whatever it takes...
At its root, the PIH mission is both medical and moral. It is based on solidarity, rather than charity alone. When a person in Peru, or Siberia, or rural Haiti falls ill, PIH uses all of the means at it's disposal to make them well—from pressuring drug manufacturers, to lobbying policy makers, to providing medical care and social services. Whatever it takes. "Just as we would do if a member of our own family—or we ourselves—were ill." For more information about PIH and Paul Farmer read Tracy Kidder's book "Mountains Beyond Mountains".
