This #GivingTuesday, join us in bringing critical healthcare to the far end of the road in Southern Africa. Your support of GAIA strengthens HIV/AIDS prevention, empowers local healthcare workers, and ensures every person – wherever they live – has access to life-saving care.

There’s still work to be done; in 2025 alone, through consistent testing of pregnant women, GAIA identified 32 positive cases of HIV and connected these women to treatment, helping them prevent transmission of the virus to their infants.

GAIA’s founding documents were registered with the California Secretary of State on June 12, 2000, marking today the official start of our next 25 years of impact. Thank you to everyone who has been part of our journey. Here's to the next 25 years of making a difference together.

We’re proud to be part of the global effort to ensure that malaria ends with us. #WorldMalariaDay2025

GAIA mobile clinics are helping change this: treating 631,000+ malaria cases to date, including 45,851 in 2024 alone. Clinics provide timely diagnosis, treatment, and antenatal care—including malaria prophylaxis for pregnant women and their unborn children.

Malaria remains a major public health challenge in Malawi and globally —children under five and pregnant women made up nearly 80% of the 597,000 malaria deaths worldwide in 2023. Without prompt treatment, it can rapidly escalate to severe illness and death.

Programs like GAIA’s nursing scholarships and fellowships help empower young individuals, especially women, to pursue an education and strengthen the health workforce in Malawi and Zambia. Learn more at gaiaglobalhealth.org #WHWWeek #healthworkerssavelives

The World Health Organization predicts a shortfall of 11,000,000 health workers by 2030. In Malawi, 54% of nursing positions in public health facilities are vacant.

Health workers at GAIA’s MHCs are doing just that: building health security for Malawians far from govt. health facilities through 270K+ annual visits for preventive & primary care, treatment of over 50K malaria cases & care for chronic conditions like hypertension & HIV.

Health workers lie at the heart of our global capacity to respond to infectious disease threats and health emergencies, and to build the healthy foundation necessary for development. #WHWWeek #healthworkerssavelives

But there’s still much work to be done. Together, we’ll continue our mission to build a healthier, more equitable future for all. Learn more at gaiaglobalhealth.org

On #WorldHealthDay2025, GAIA celebrates the strides we've made in improving healthcare access and outcomes for under-resourced communities in Malawi. From enhancing maternal and child health to addressing preventable diseases, we're proud of the progress so far.

Healthworkers are the heart of healthcare. They are more important than vaccines, medicines, MRI machines or hospitals. While governments like to talk about new infrastructure, equipment and resources. They are all useless without workers. #WHWWeek sbee.link/ag9whpnvju
