Ways you or your company can help:

Our work requires robust local Member Associations that partner with governments and the private sector to leverage resources and scale up effective programs. In Bolivia for example, five women die every day from cervical cancer, and more than three million young women are at risk of developing this preventable disease. To eliminate these unnecessary deaths, we partnered with our Member Association in Bolivia, the Bolivian government, and the Gardasil Access Program to vaccinate more than 75,000 girls in poor and rural communities against the disease. The result? A model program that the Bolivian government plans to adopt and scale up.
