Dedicated to improving access to quality healthcare for marginalized and vulnerable populations
At the Foundation for Health Equity, we believe in equal health for all. Our primary goal is to end health inequality by enhancing the health of individuals, families, and communities. We strive to build a more inclusive society where everyone, especially vulnerable and marginalized populations, enjoys the right to health.
Founded in 2009, and formerly known as the Centre for Development and Community Welfare (CEDCOW), we focus on improving access to value-based care for those who have struggled with navigating barriers in the healthcare system. Our approach empowers and supports both healthcare users and providers, ensuring that all individuals can access high-quality services that enhance their lives.
We believe that everyone, regardless of age, race, social or cultural background, sexual orientation, or religion, should have equal access to healthcare that encompasses physical, mental, and social well-being, free from stigma and discrimination.
