Here's a great opportunity to support health education in low-resource regions

T

 

his year, WiRED International celebrated its 19th anniversary of bringing life-saving medical and health information at no charge to people in underserved communities around the world.

 

As you plan your gift-giving this year, we ask that you consider a donation to WiRED International. Because we are volunteer driven, fully 95% of your donation will go directly to our programs. We pledge to use your money wisely, honestly and efficiently as we go into our 20th anniversary year.

Our aim is to elevate the level of health knowledge within communities; our dream is to reach a threshold of knowledge where entire communities see prevention practices as the norm, where people are sufficiently informed to support each other on matters of good health.

 

WiRED’s products and services provide interactive training packages, animations, videos, online services, translations and database programs. Currently, nearly 100 of WiRED’s modules have been translated into Spanish, Portuguese, Armenian, Mandarin, Arabic and French.

 

WiRED is proud of its recent accomplishments in strengthening “community immunity” through free, interactive health education:

  • WiRED was the first nongovernmental organization to release health information on the Zika virus in English, Spanish and Portuguese.
  • WiRED created a Web page devoted to the mosquito, the carrier of so many diseases, including Zika, dengue, yellow fever, malaria and chikungunya.
  • This year, WiRED grew its programs in Peru, Armenia and Kenya. We introduced a Field Health Record System that our partner, Project Amazonas, will use in its clinical work along isolated parts of the Amazon. Throughout 2017, we plan to expand the scope of this computer-based record system. In Armenia, together with our partner WiRED Armenia, we worked to ease access to critical health information. We continued our popular certificate program, and, this year, graduated 62 Kenyans, who completed their examinations in many health topics.
  • This December, we will launch the J. Christoper Stevens Community Preparedness Project, which provides an integrated collection of training courses to help small communities prepare for the incursion of such infectious diseases as Ebola, Zika, Chagas and more than 35 other illnesses that plague people around the world.

We at WiRED, along with our tireless volunteers, are planning an exciting and productive 2017 — our 20th anniversary of commitment to global health education. We urge you to join us as we strive to raise the quality of health knowledge and illness prevention in remote and medically-starved places worldwide.
