The Clinton Health AccessThe Clinton Health Access Initiative is dedicated to improving access to healthcare for all individuals. Residents of developing countries often cannot afford and do not have access to systems that provide basic healthcare, including medicines for diseases that are preventable, treatable or curable. This is where CHAI intervenes – by partnering with governments and working with other NGOs to provide solutions to the biggest challenges impeding effective healthcare in developing countries. Using a business-oriented approach, CHAI endeavors to alter commodity markets to decrease the costs of care and treatment, as well as expand access to health services. |

Neighbor to NeighborIn 1975, Neighbor to Neighbor opened its doors in the basement of Christ Church Greenwich. A group of concerned individuals established Neighbor as a clearinghouse for the distribution of free clothing and food to people with emergency needs in Greenwich, Stamford and Port Chester. While the food program began as an effort to supply food on an emergency basis, the Greenwich Department of Social Services asked Neighbor in 1984 to initiate a weekly food program for Greenwich families in great need of assistance in the face of increasing cost of living expenses. Volunteers packed bags with a variety of available food items to supply families with three meals, for three days, for each member of the family. |
