The Astellas and the Astellas Global Health Foundation partnerships with Americares have evolved over the last decade to become one of Americares most dynamic partners in emergency response, clinical services and community health.

Astellas is a research-based global pharmaceutical company committed to advancing innovative medical solutions for patients, particularly in key focus areas including oncology, immunology, cardiology, urology and neuroscience, while also advancing new areas such as cell and gene therapy, ophthalmology and muscle diseases. The company’s commitment to CSR and philanthropy has driven a strong partnership with Americares that has helped move the needle in several program areas. Astellas support has included a donation for Americares clinics for Venezuelan migrants.

The partnership the Astellas Global Health Foundation’s legacy philanthropic entity, the Astellas USA Foundation, has had with Americares has included strengthening health care for un- and under-insured Americans who rely on the Free and Charitable Clinic sector; funding Medical Outreach volunteers as they deliver health and hope to some of the poorest places in the world; responding to major disasters at home and abroad; and, most recently, a grant from the Astellas Global Health Foundation to support Americares rural clinic in El Salvador.
