Living Goods

Living Goods aims to save lives at scale by supporting digitally empowered community health workers (CHWs). We work with governments and partners to leverage smart mobile technology, rigorously strengthen performance, and relentlessly innovate to cost-effectively deliver high-quality, impactful health services. Effective community health programs save lives. We leverage a powerful combination of catalytic technology, high-impact training, and quality treatments that empower government CHWs to deliver quality care to their neighbors' doorsteps. These CHWs also earn meaningful compensation and enhance their stature in the process, reinforcing a virtuous cycle of trust. We are deeply focused on systemic change, and partner with governments and other partners to transform access to primary health care for mothers and children. We put patients first and strive to create a world in which every mother gives birth safely and no child dies from an easily treatable–or preventable–diseases like malaria, pneumonia, or diarrhea. We believe universal health care is possible when CHWs are equipped to serve as the engine for stronger health systems. Interested in joining Living Goods? Do you want your work to matter?
