About us Our story Our story International Health Partners was founded in direct response to the 2004 Boxing Day tsunami disaster to bridge the gap between supply and demand for healthcare products in the aftermath. Since then, we have grown into a professional and trusted organisation. From a simple idea to match donated health supplies with needs in resource-poor settings, we have since delivered over 50 million courses of treatment to 100+ countries. Today, we change lives. We still respond to disasters, but we also support long-term health programmes and provide Essential Health Packs, full of basic medicines, to support medics with the tools they need to carry out their work. We work with a global network of healthcare companies that donate high-quality and long-dated products. We also depend on logistics providers, who help us store products and deliver them at the right time to the people who need them. We value the alliances and organisations that fund our work. Through our annual Sharing Best Practice Workshop, conference contributions and board membership of the Partnership for Quality Medical Donations (PQMD), we contribute to raising standards for global product donation. Our Ethos International Health Partners work is inspired by our Christian faith. It motivates us to care for those in vulnerable and disaster-hit communities and to give our best in all circumstances as an expression of God's love. We believe that all people are of equal worth, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ethnic or religious background. For that reason, healthcare products are distributed on the basis of need alone and are provided free of charge to all patients. We place respect for others at the heart of everything we do. Our Christian ethos impacts the way we run our organisation. We believe that good stewardship of resources, open decision-making and regular reporting to our supporters are essential in building trust. We are committed to ensuring that all donated healthcare products are safely and professionally handled for the benefit of patients. We recognise and are grateful for the contributions of others with whom we work – healthcare companies, warehousing and logistics operators and our NGO distribution partners in third countries – and are committed to respect, honesty and clarity in our partnerships. Our staff team begins each day with prayer together, and prayerful reflection underpins our decision making. As our motivation and behaviour is rooted in our Christian faith, we apply an occupational requirement of Christian faith and commitment to each role on our staff team, and require the same assurance of Christian faith and commitment from our trustees and volunteers. We are committed to diversity amongst our staff, trustees and volunteers and will not discriminate on any other grounds that are unrelated to our Christian ethos.
