In rural Yucatán villages, where indigenous Maya live in abject poverty, A Promise of Health has developed an innovative and unique healthcare model that if replicated across rural Mexico can revolutionize the delivery of medical services for the poor.

Since 2001 until now, A Promise of Health has placed Mexican homeopathic doctors in rural Yucatán, serving more than 25 municipalities. During that time, the doctors, who see on average 140 patients each day, have treated an incredible number of patients – more than 65,000. With a portable pharmacy they are not only able to diagnose and prescribe, but also to give villagers needed medicine. All of this at no cost to the patient.

Our doctors teach children sanitation, personal health and nutrition in village schools including promoting the growing of home gardens for better nutrition.

Unique to A Promise of Health is our doctors live in the communities they serve. This is the first time that has ever occurred! 

A Promise of Health offers a new solution to the age old challenge of providing low cost, effective, basic healthcare for citizens most in need. In Yucatan, A Promise of Health has proven its program. It has successfully treated chronic and acute illness for thousands of rural Maya. Illnesses caused by poor sanitation and hygiene are common and can be prevented.

A Promise of Health plans to expand this successful homeopathic model across other parts of Mexico. Everyday healthcare doesn't have to be out of reach for Mexico’s poor who comprise 76% of Mexico's population. Hope thrives with solutions that work. With A Promise of Health’s innovative healthcare model, hope is coming again to the rural poor of Mexico. Much work needs to be done!
