We must bring healthcare to rural Oaxaca. The facts are compelling!

·   More than 75 percent of people in Oaxaca live in "extreme poverty!"

·   More than 50 percent of them have no access to medical care!

·   In northern rural areas, more than 80 percent of indigenous people have no access to medical care!

·   Oaxaca has the highest rate of maternal mortality and infant mortality in all of Mexico!

A Promise of Health provides healthcare solutions for rural Mexico, using homeopathic doctors and medicine.

Starting in rural Yucatán villages, where indigenous Maya still live in extreme 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 to the poor.

From 2001 into 2009, A Promise of Health placed Mexican homeopathic doctors in rural Yucatán, serving more than 25 municipalities. During that time, the doctors, who saw on average 140 patients each day, treated an incredible number of patients – more than 65,000!

With a portable pharmacy of homeopathic medicine, the doctors were not only able to diagnose and prescribe, but also to give villagers needed medicine. All of this at no cost to the patient.

As a part of the healthcare program, our doctors taught children sanitation, personal health and nutrition in village schools including promoting the growing of home gardens for better nutrition.

A Promise of Health’s pioneering efforts confirmed our initial beliefs, that homeopathic medicine is the safest, lowest cost and most effective way to treat the majority of illnesses. Because the medicines are made of natural substances, there is a greater acceptance of them by native people. Because we use respected Mexican doctors and ask that they live in the villages they serve, our health programs are widely accepted by the people.

With your help, A Promise of Health plans to expand this successful homeopathic model across rural Mexico. Everyday healthcare doesn't have to be out of reach for Mexico’s poor who comprise 76% of Mexico's population. Read how you can play a part in this exciting project.

Much work needs to be done!
