Acerca del Programa de Ayuda Humanitaria de la FMH

El Programa de Ayuda Humanitaria de la FMH combate la falta de acceso a la atención y el tratamiento ofreciendo un apoyo muy necesario a personas con trastornos de la coagulación hereditarios en países en vías de desarrollo. Al proporcionar un flujo más previsible y sustentable de donaciones de ayuda humanitaria, el Programa de Ayuda Humanitaria de la FMH hace posible que los pacientes tengan acceso consistente y confiable al tratamiento y la atención. Nada de esto sería posible sin el generoso apoyo de Sanofi y Sobi, nuestras Contribuyentes Visionarias Fundadoras; de Bayer, CSL Behring y Roche, nuestras Contribuyentes Visionarias; de Grifols, nuestra Contribuyente de Liderazgo; y de nuestra Contribuyente Takeda.
