About
Timmy Global Health is an Indianapolis-based nonprofit that works to expand access to healthcare, while empowering student and medical volunteers to engage directly in global development and tackle global health challenges firsthand. In collaboration with our international and US partners, we facilitate medical brigades and channel financial, medical, and human resources to community-based projects in the countries where we serve. Through our work, Timmy Global Health seeks to strengthen local health and education systems while promoting a spirit of humanitarianism and global awareness among our volunteers.Although we are based in Indianapolis, our reach is both national and global. We presently work with five high school chapters in Indianapolis, seventeen university chapters and two corporate partners throughout the United States, and have active projects with our international partners in Ecuador, Guatemala, Nigeria.
Timmy Global Health focuses on depth over breadth. We understand that one time short-term efforts alone do not provide lasting change, but sustained efforts that focus on empowerment can. By supporting the missions of our partner organizations and complementing their work with short-term medical brigades, distribution of in-kind resources, and year-round funding, we seek to build their capacity, expand their outreach, and help further our collective missions.
