Paul Farmer has changed the world’s thinking on how to bring health care to the poor. With both a PhD in Anthropology and an MD board certified in Infectious Diseases, this Harvard University Professor has built successful hands-on programs in multiple countries. Partners in Health, the non-profit he started, has an amazing 90+% efficiency – with minimal overhead costs. His story is told in the book Mountains Beyond Mountains by Tracy Kidder. And the story goes on today.

Why not a member of the committee to present this one to our community. I think it would be best coming from a doctor or nurse, etc
