Profiled Organization - SATELLIFE

In honor of our featured story this month, we decided to profile a non-profit organization that is helping develop health care resources internationally especially in certain underdeveloped regions in Africa.

Below is an excerpt from the organization's web-site that gives an overview of what they do. 

Over the past fourteen years, SATELLIFE has been a leader in developing solutions to the everyday information needs of health professionals working in communities where AIDS and malaria are common place, but medical journals and the Internet are an unaffordable luxury. Through innovative applications of information and communication technology, we break down barriers to information access. From major cities to remote villages, we extend the power of knowledge and the promise of better health.

SATELLIFE's unique strength lies in its ability to address this challenge through multiple approaches:

• By disseminating up-to-date, relevant information that enables good decision making.

• By deploying multiple technologies and building health care workers' skills to utilize these technologies effectively.

• By creating local, regional, and global communities that share information and support each other.

These efforts span the globe, with over 20,000 individuals in 120 countries sharing knowledge and building healthier communities.

SATELLIFE is registered in the United States as a 501(c)3, tax-exempt charity, ID #22-3051191.
