Success Stories

USAID global health programs serve as a cornerstone of U.S. foreign assistance. Working in partnership with over 70 host country governments, public and private sector agencies, and nongovernmental organizations, USAID's Bureau for Global Health develops and adapts health products and interventions, and supports their field testing and introduction. Past USAID investments led to products that now reach millions, saving lives throughout the developing world.

Read Telling Our Story

USAID works on behalf of Americans to improve the lives of people throughout the world. Yet few of us get the chance to personally see the tremendous impact of its work or meet the individuals, families, and communities who benefit from American assistance.

Telling Our Story is our effort to let everyone see the impact of USAID’s work and meet the people whose lives it changed – it is also their effort to say “thank you” for America’s help.
