In 2020, as the world went into global lockdown due to the health crisis of the unique Corona Virus, known as Covid-19, Helping Children Worldwide brought together a coalition of like-minded individuals and organizations to work on our Way Forward Plan and the various committees addressing the vision of Helping Children Worldwide and its nexus with global health through our support of the work of Mercy Hospital. The discussion grew as members expressed interest in engaging in broader collaborations to take on the challenges faced in the extremely low resource environments where maternal/infant mortality and morbidity is a great factor in the lives of children.
When we did not find the right fit within existing organizations to engage in that work, it was not a huge leap forward to find our own path, and not much longer before we found there were many more Christian and secular mission-driven organizations interested in working together on finding practical solutions to the issues they were all facing. By 2021, Together for Global Health was a functioning network. Collaborating to discuss challenges, share ideas, increase effectiveness and link resources to need.
Headed up by Yasmine Vaughan, the Helping Children Worldwide Technical Advisor for Global Health and Missions, Together for Global Health brings together crucial voices and thought leaders working on the ground and collaborating across oceans in the field of global health. The members of TGH meet regularly to address issues that arise in international health mission. They collaborate to gather and ship medical supplies and equipment, share information, strategies and ideas for improving the outlook on health for the patients and communities they serve.
