This makes me so sad! As a pediatrician, this is one of the things that breaks my heart, that children's health care isn't considered a basic human right, and where you're born makes such a difference in your health.
I hope you can find private funding to continue this valuable work. Hopefully this is something the Gates Foundation might help with, I saw he is planning on using all of his funding over the next 20 years.
oh my goodness, Emily ... ! I am so, so, sorry. I wish our donation could be larger, but our finances are in a bit of flux right now due to some transitions in our family. I will definitely hang onto the link for future reference, and will pray that any disruption to funding is short-lived and minimal, though I understand that any disruption means your in-country folks need to seek other work. This administration just *doesn't get it.* Never has, never will. Keep up the neighborly work. <3
For those who want to use a QCD account, which cannot be done as far as I know through a link online, but must come through a check, where can we send a check and to whom should it be payable?

I am happy help. Please keep us informed about how your funding is going so we can hopefully keep you and your team together and functioning.

Thanks for the comment! You can send a check to:
Duke Global Health Institute
Attn: Emily Smith, PhD
301 Trent Drive
Durham, NC 27710
I'll also update the post with this info. Thanks for considering!
I sent an email to Julie.watson@duke.edu asking where to send a check directly from my IRA at the IRA custodian. The address is different.
Hi Bruce. Sorry about that! Can you email globalhealth.giving@duke.edu and me at emily.smith1@duke.edu? Then we can help. Thanks!
I'm so sorry to read this - your work is so instrumental. Sorry I can't give more right now, but know I stand with you in solidarity
I can't donate at this time, but praying for you and your team (and our nation).
