Welcome to the new www.PIH.org

Posted on May 19, 2010

Since PIH was founded nearly 25 years ago, sharing our experiences, building partnerships, and advocating for social justice have been integral components of our work. And for us, achieving these goals has always involved making personal connections. Over these years we’ve been thrilled as more and more people have joined the fight to break the cycle of poverty and disease; at the same time, maintaining and fostering relationships with so many new allies has become ever more challenging.

The new www.pih.org reflects our latest online response to this challenge.

A new design

We hope that our new website will make it easier to access news and information about our projects and to learn how you can connect with our work. Our team publishes new content on an almost daily basis. With our Blog and News features, we’ll be able to get that content to you even faster. (Follow our RSS feeds!)

PIH is also active on both Facebook (http://facebook.com/partnersinhealth) and Twitter (@PIH). If you’re on there too, please say hello!

Fostering connections

Every day, we at Partners In Health are privileged to meet individuals who share our commitment to health and social justice from across the country and around the world. What would happen, we wondered, if we provided these passionate advocates with a way to meet and team up with others who share their passion—whether that means a neighbor down the street or across the country.

ACT.PIH.ORG is that space.

Integrated right into our new website, it’s an online community for supporters of PIH and global health equity to meet, plan, and take action. Organizing events, creating personal fundraising pages, and mobilizing advocacy campaigns are all possible using these tools. Click here to get started.

www.StandWithHaiti.org

The crisis in Haiti continues to be dire and PIH’s work there is far from over. Our website www.standwithhaiti.org will continue to serve as a central location for updates on PIH’s work in Haiti, and as a resource for those committed to keeping the world focused on supporting this impoverished and heroic nation. Going forward, we will continue to maintain both www.standwithhaiti.org and www.pih.org as separate, but intimately connected resources.

Thank you for your continued support and for visiting the new www.pih.org. Feel free to say hello in the comments below.
