Brandie Conforti, Director of Corporate Relations, Partners In Health
An international affairs professional with an interest in global politics and systems
Has been working in the non-profit sector for 10 years
Focuses on fundraising, strategy and relationship-building
Has been with Partners In Health since February 2008
Mobilizes corporate cash and in-kind support for the organization’s programs around the world
Served as Executive Director of the Boston World Affairs Council for 7 years prior to joining PIH
FEBRUARY 3, 2010
Who is PIH and What Do they Do?
Founded in 1987 by Dr. Paul Farmer, Partners In
Health (PIH) is an international health care
organization based in Boston that works in 12
countries to deliver high quality health care and to
break the cycle of disease and poverty.
PIH’s work has three goals: to care for patients, to
alleviate the root causes of disease, and to share
lessons learned around the world.
PIH Worldwide
PIH implements its vision through 49 health facilities
by a staff of more than 11,000 people, over half of
whom are trained and compensated community
health workers who themselves are poor.
We are the main provider of healthcare
for more than 2.3 million people around the world.
Partners In Health Around the World
The PIH Approach
• Providing access to primary health care for the
poor
• Training and employing a network of community
health workers
• Prescribing food for prevention and treatment of
malnutrition and disease
• Addressing basic social and economic needs
• Reinforcing the public sector
PIH in Haiti
PIH has been providing vital health care services in
Haiti for more than 20 years and is one of the
largest health care providers in the country,
working with the Haitian Ministry of Health to
deliver comprehensive health care services to a
catchment area of 1.2 million across the Central
Plateau and the Lower Artibonite Valley.
PIH Sites in Haiti
On the Ground in Haiti
Although PIH is not a disaster relief organization
we were well placed to respond to this disaster:
PIH in Haiti, Zanmi Lasante, is a Haitian-led
organization with thousands of employees, who were
ready to spring into action quickly.
PIH had more than 100 doctors, 600 nurses and
4,000 employees on the ground in Haiti working from
12 existing PIH medical facilities in Haiti before
the earthquake struck on January 12th.
PIH’s Immediate Response
• PIH quickly established field hospitals in Port-au-
Prince and took the lead to set up 20 operating
rooms, with 12 functioning 24-hours a day. PIH was
the first group designated by the World Health
Organization to serve as the primary coordinators of
University Hospital in Port-au-Prince (HUEH).
• PIH established a relief transfer system to transfer
patients from Port-au-Prince to PIH sites in the
Central Plateau and Lower Artibonite Valley.
PIH’s Immediate Response
• PIH was one of the first NGOs to evacuate patients in
critical condition to hospitals in the United States and
Dominican Republic and continues to coordinate the
evacuation of patients in critical condition to the
United States Naval Ship, the U.S.N.S. Comfort.
• PIH has sent 66 plane loads with more than 235
medical volunteers – orthopedic surgeons,
anesthesiologists, surgical nurses and other medical
professionals – and 150,000 lbs of medical supplies to
support the more than 4,500 PIH health care providers
already in Haiti.
Looking Ahead
Looking ahead, PIH’s efforts will be spent in
three core areas:
• Supporting the public sector’s ability to provide
health care.
• Mobilizing people at the grassroots level to
participate in the health care system.
• Addressing the mid- and long-term health, social,
and economic ramifications of the resettlement of
tens of thousands of people from Port-au-Prince
to areas where PIH works.
Looking Ahead
The long-term ramifications in Haiti
are going to be significant and far-reaching
with a new, large group of vulnerable
and displaced people.
As we begin to look forward we recognize that
out of great tragedy we have the opportunity to
build Haiti back better.
