Welcome to GHEP
Global Health and Education Projects
We are the Global Health and Education Projects, Incorporated – GHEP! We’re a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit, public charitable, development organization. Our mission is to eliminate health and education disparities (inequities) in local communities in the United States and around the world by implementing programs that address the social determinants of health (SDOH) and human development. Social determinants are the underlying, root-causes of health and education disparities and poverty in our society.
GHEP was founded by a group of compassionate individuals from around the world. Each of the founders have deep personal experiences of health and education disparities; thus, they devotedly passionate and committed to building thriving and equitable communities. In our work, we build honest, genuine, non-judgmental, and enduring partnerships with individuals, families, and organizations. Through these partnerships, we work with our community partners to address the root causes of inequalities by working to build strong communities where individuals and families are empowered with the hands-on knowledge, up-to-date skills, and abilities. Our projects provide pipelines of access to opportunities and resources that help our community members break inter-generational cycles of health and education disparities and socioeconomic adversities. We hope you can join us. We welcome and look forward to your partnership.
