Partners, Grants, and Collaborators

Since the Tia Foundation was established in 2006, we have trained more than 1,258 community health workers and brought sustainable healthcare to over 938,000 people in rural Mexico. None of this would be possible without the support of the partners and institutions that share our commitment to long-term community wellness.

Tia works alongside dedicated volunteers, development professionals, university partners, and organizations that help strengthen our programs and extend our reach.

Let’s Work Together

We are always exploring new partnerships, grants, and organizational relationships that can help expand sustainable healthcare in rural Mexico. Our most valuable collaborations often come from universities, development organizations, health institutions, and socially conscious companies, but we welcome conversations with any group that shares our values.

If your organization is passionate about global development, community empowerment, or improving access to healthcare, we would love to connect.
