Timmy Global Health of ND Advocacy, Fundraising, Service
Who We Are Founded in 1997 by Dr. Chuck Dietzen, Timmy Global Health (formerly Timmy Foundation) is a non-profit organization based out of Indianapolis, Indiana that channels resources to sustainable health projects in developing countries. Timmy utilizes the energy of student and medical volunteers to increase access to healthcare and education to those who in most need.
VISION: A world in which basic healthcare and education are available to all children. MISSION: Building health futures worldwide, one child at a time. We accomplish this by strengthening community-based health and education initiatives and by empowering young people to share their energy and compassion.
SUSTAINABILITY Timmy Global Health believes in facilitating a sustainable means of providing basic healthcare to impoverished communities. We do this by : Partnering with local organizations. Our efforts are not to replace those of our IPOs but to support their efforts in areas of great need. Making a week-long medical brigade just one facet in a year-long commitment.
EMPOWERMENT Timmy Global Health strives to provide individuals, especially children, with healthy futures so that they may be empowered to seek quality education and be successful in their work. If an individual is not healthy, it becomes very difficult to receive an education or work.
YEAR-LONG COMMITMENT Our efforts extend beyond the week-long medical brigade. Trip participants spend 51 weeks of the year educating, fundraising, and advocating for their IPO in addition to collecting supplies and recruiting medical professionals for the trip.
