2020 Annual Report
Each of us will remember 2020 for different reasons. Too many of those memories, like the costs of COVID-19, will be tragic. But there are other reasons to feel inspired.
Project HOPE’s response to COVID-19 is unlike anything in our organization’s history — a unified response that supported health systems in more than 150 countries. But what really inspires me is that, in spite of that challenge, our other essential work continued — work that is moving the world forward by saving the lives of mothers and infants, reaching those in the wake of crisis and disaster, and ending the threat of diseases like tuberculosis and HIV/AIDS.
COVID-19 was a throughline that touched every aspect of our work last year. Even though there was no way to know just how devastating the pandemic would be, Project HOPE team members around the world were ready. Day after day, they adapted, adjusted, scaled up, sacrificed, and delivered. That’s why when I look back on 2020, I also feel thankful: for our team’s tireless commitment, and for your generous support of their work.
The past year reaffirmed just how interconnected we all are. Even though life changed in so many profound ways, our mission to build a healthier, more equitable world did not. Thank you for supporting Project HOPE and helping to strengthen health care workers around the world.
