Join RaisingHealth's Board Fundraising Committee

RaisingHealth Partners (formerly known as Academy of Medical & Public Health Services (AMPHS)) is a Brooklyn-based, nonprofit organization dedicated to eliminating barriers to accessing healthcare for immigrants and other under-served communities in NYC. Every year, we proudly serve and connect more than 20,000 New Yorkers to healthcare systems. Our programs equip immigrant populations with the knowledge to help them navigate the complexities of living in a new city and transition into post-secondary education and/or employment opportunities. At the same time, we also educate community members on their immigrant rights, healthy living, nutrition and health access, and create space for civic engagement.
