Dear Neil,
Thank you very much for your comprehensive reply [ https://www.hifa.org/dgroups-rss/press-release-global-healthcare-informa... ]. It contains much important information, especially reference to the plan for collaboration. I am sure HIFA members look forward to hearing how this important relationship will develop.
You also highlight HIFA's funding needs. As you rightly say, "this is our biggest immediate challenge".
It would be great to hear views from the HIFA Membership & Supporting Organizations about how we can improve the current funding situation, e.g.:
- avenues for Funding (grants, etc)
- experienced Fundraisers volunteering time & experience to HIFA
Best wishes
Julie
