we have implemented social marketing and social franchising programs with
behavior change communication to deliver prevention and treatment products and
services across a wide range of health areas including Family Planning and
Reproductive Health, HIV/AIDS, malaria and child survival, and water-borne
diseases. The program is a top DALY and CYP performer for PSI with over 820,000
DALYS and over 300,000 CYPs annually and an annual budget of over $15 million.

believe in what we do and enjoy working with each other to achieve such
results.
