Expanding Medical Aid In The Amazon Rainforest
 

In 2008 Jonathan Shanin's foundation, AidJoy, began working with dentists aboard a medical mission in the Amazon rainforest.

 

Since that time Jonathan’s foundation, AidJoy, has scaled these medical programs from treating 1,500 patients to treating 19,000 patients annually.
Go to AidJoy.org and learn more about AidJoy's contributions in medical expansion.

The Location: Loreto, Peru: the Peruvian side of the Amazon rainforest. An area larger than Germany, covered in jungle.

The Population: Approximately 900,000 people, half of whom live in 4,000 villages scattered across the region.

Primary Mode of Transportation: Dugout canoe and riverboat taxi (peki-peki). For 95% of rural residents, the network of rivers is the only means of transportation. The cost of fuel for motorized boats is cost prohibitive for families in the Amazon.

The Problem: One public hospital serves uninsured patients from the entire region. For rural people, the cost of travel and medical expenses can start an inescapable cycle of poverty.

The Reality: Even if money can be found for motorized boat travel during an emergency, it can take days-to-weeks to reach medical professionals and receive treatment.

The Consequence: Tens-of-thousands suffer or die annually in the Peruvian Amazon from treatable or preventable medical conditions. The highest rates of mortality are among neonates and infants, and the #1 cause of death is common diarrhea and resultant dehydration.

Proprietary Tools and Research
 

In 2020, Humanry gathered independent research on the skills, habits, and beliefs of the most successful leaders of 100% remote companies. 

Humanry's team of executives who have built, run, scaled, and exited remote companies condensed this data into a framework comprised of 6 dimensions of remote work.

The framework is the basis for a suite of proprietary tools and consulting services to help diagnose, plan, and implement solutions to the challenges most encountered in remote (or partially-remote) companies.
