Our Partners
We couldn’t do it without our passionate and collaborative partnership organizations.
Partners in Ecuador
Timmy Global Health and Hombro a Hombro have been in partnership since 2013. Hombro a Hombro is a part of Ecuador’s Ministry of Health. We work directly with several local health centers in the province as well as Hombro a Hombro’s TAPS program, a team of health promoters who work in the field to reach out to rural populations.
Hombro a Hombro
Tierra Nueva was our very first partnership in Ecuador. They support our patient referral program, seeing patients from all sites across the country and providing care to the most vulnerable chronic patients in the communities. Additionally, they have built a robust CHW program which was vital to our programs and continues to improve the access to healthcare for our partnership communities.

Banelino is a Fair Trade association made up of small banana farm producers. The association represents ~300 Producers on the 'Northwest Line' of the Dominican Republic, in the provinces Valverde and Monte Cristi, very close to the border with Haiti.
Partners in Nigeria
(BMNPS) was founded in the rural village of Bodo City in 1995 as a response to the failure of the Nigerian government to maintain viable primary schools in the region. Dr. Scott Pegg, his wife Tijen, the International Friends Committee of BMNPS, and support from Timmy Global Health has helped the community-based schools to expand. Today the program operates six school buildings, has helped construct latrines and procure a generator, established a student scholarship program, and a deworming and immunization program.

Dr. Mercy Obeime, a family practice physician in Indianapolis and native of Nigeria, founded the Mercy Foundation after an eye-opening trip visiting one of her medical school professors in Nigeria. Today Mercy Medical Missions and Timmy Global Health work together to engage patients in programs designed to teach preventative health measures and lifestyle modifications to improve overall quality of life and health outcomes.
