Foreword
This booklet is for
doctors and administrators in church-related hospitals around the
world;
national church leaders; interested pastors and women's leaders;
national Christian coordinating agencies; and
anyone in church-related health work -- whether hospitals, dispensaries,
or community health.
The writer is a Christian anthropologist who has worked in health
programs with governments, churches, and other organizations in a number
of different countries in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
The booklet's aim is to help you find ways to finance the health
programs you want to offer in your own community.
The booklet mentions a number of ways to finance health work, but
it concentrates on international organizations and discuss the pros and
cons of asking them for help. At the end, you will find a list of the major
organizations and how to contact them.
