About this non-profit:

You will never think of charity in the same way again. In the Dominican Republic, one American is leading an effort to provide health care to hundreds of thousands of poor people in a way that does not require hand outs or subsidized care. He is an anthropologist named Willie Hunter and he has created a health care model that may one day treat 100 million people around the world. How does he do it? He charges the poor. The result is patients who take charge of their own well-being and a health care system that is truly sustainable.
