Partnering with AMP Health to Increase Access to Healthcare in Africa

We’re proud to share that we have joined the Aspen Management Partnership for Health (AMP Health) and its network of partners to help strengthen community health systems in Africa by increasing access to quality healthcare.

Pfizer’s previous grant contributions will also be matched this year by the USAID private sector matching funds program, which will allow AMP Health to extend its efforts to additional African nations, including Ghana and Zambia.
