Healthy Americas Foundation

What Healthy Americas Foundation does

Healthy Americas Foundation (HAF) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization (EIN 76-0724246) headquartered in Washington, D.C. that improves health outcomes for Hispanic and Latino individuals and families across the Americas. The foundation operates a portfolio of community health programs rather than a single product: the annual ¡Vive tu vida! Get Up! Get Moving!® community health events held across multiple U.S. cities; Mi Hermana — Latina Health Champions® for chronic disease prevention; Vacunas Para Todos for vaccination access; Buena Salud Américas for international cervical cancer and HPV work; the Healthy Americas Research Consortium (HARC) funding academic research using NIH All of Us data; the Hispanic Family Equity Fund (a $100 million initiative); and the Real o Sintético 2.0 digital health guide co-developed with The Carter Center. The foundation is closely affiliated with the National Alliance for Hispanic Health, which has been operating for over 52 years and serves as its founding partner.

HAF's offering is built on a bilingual (English/Spanish) digital education infrastructure — including a virtual webinar system with CME credits, QR-code-enabled downloadable resources, and a website (buenasaludparatodos.org) — layered on top of a 500+ community health worker (Promotores de Salud) network and 500+ partner organizations. Programmatic content includes comic-strip-based media literacy curricula (Baldo characters), Sesame Workshop co-produced family videos, and on-demand webinars.

The revenue model is that of a nonprofit: charitable donations (with published tiers of $25, $100, and $500), corporate and foundation grants (Centene, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, Hologic, Siemens Foundation, Merck Manuals), and government/PAHO-coordinated funding. The foundation explicitly excludes funding from tobacco, alcohol, and sugary drink companies. Donations may be made in cash, publicly traded securities, private company stock, real estate, and certain personal property. HAF holds a Platinum Seal of Transparency, is a "Best in America" charity, and is WCAG 2.1 Level AA compliant. Revenue is not publicly disclosed.

Direct peers

• National Alliance for Hispanic Health: Parent organization and founding partner of HAF; operates the 52-year-old member network that serves 100M+ people annually. Direct institutional peer in Hispanic health advocacy and community-based health programs.
• UnidosUS: Large Hispanic-focused nonprofit with comparable health, education, and economic programs serving Latino communities. Strong overlap in audience, mission, and funding sources (corporate sponsors, foundations).
• Hispanic Federation: National Hispanic nonprofit delivering health, education, immigration, and economic programs. Direct peer in community-based service delivery and Latino advocacy; shares partner ecosystem (corporate sponsors, foundations).

Broad incumbents

• Sesame Workshop: Direct co-development partner (Plaza Sesamo / Sesame Street in Communities content) but operates as a much larger, broader-scope education nonprofit. Comparable in bilingual health-education content delivery model and reach to underserved families.
• Robert Wood Johnson Foundation: Major health-focused funder supporting HAF's 'Our Voices' tobacco initiative. Larger incumbent in the health-equity funding space with overlapping focus on social determinants of health in underserved communities.
• Pan American Health Organization (PAHO): International public health agency through which HAF operates in Latin America. Comparable in regional health-policy and chronic-disease prevention scope but operates at vastly larger governmental scale.
• American Diabetes Association: National disease-focused nonprofit where HAF's Prevengamos la Diabetes program (4,813 participants) overlaps. Comparable in diabetes prevention education delivery and bilingual content production for high-risk populations.
• American Cancer Society: National nonprofit where HAF's cancer prevention and HPV vaccination initiatives (Buena Salud Américas, HARC cervical cancer research) overlap. Comparable in prevention education and screening access programs for underserved populations.

Emerging players

• Health Equity Impact Foundation: Emerging nonprofit focused on health disparities and equity research funding. Overlaps with HAF's HARC research consortium model and chronic disease focus in underserved populations, though with narrower Hispanic-specific scope.
