The World Health Service DAF: Connecting Philanthropic Ambition with Global Health Prevention

We build connections to power proactive, preventative health around the world. Connecting philanthropic ambition and impact investment with the World Health Service (WHS) mission—to solve urgent health priorities, tackle chronic disease, and scale community-led innovation through blended capital and Donor-Advised Funds (DAFs). Powered by collaboration.

We co-create donor and investment models aligned with your vision and impact goals, offering clarity of vision, robust governance, and audited economic and social returns. Working with the WHS DAF connects your business, family office, foundation, or impact fund with the people and projects transforming healthcare from reactive “sick care” to sustainable prevention.

“By investing in health systems through the WHS DAF, we generate not only returns but long-term resilience for people and planet.” Gareth Presch, CEO, World Health Innovation Summit
