Through its Community Health Fund, ��ֳ� supports organizations dedicated to improving the physical, social, and psychological well-being of young people aged 15 to 24 with mental disorders across the globe. As we embrace a new year, we are excited to share the news that the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund is extending its support to those who need it most. Building on the success of the past years, the Community Health Fund will contribute over €2.6 million to 61 non-profit associations worldwide in 2024.

Supporting Communities Globally
The selected organizations span across diverse regions, including Belgium, the United Kingdom, the United States, and more. This year's grantees have been carefully chosen to make a significant impact on various community health aspects.

Empowering Inspiring Organizations
"We are so happy that we are able to help young people around the world. The associations that we're partnering with are incredibly inspiring, and they are able to make a real, positive impact in the field of mental health," says Xavier Hormaechea, Secretary General of the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund.

Allocation of Funds
Since its establishment in 2020, the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund has granted 9 million EUR to 204 mental health initiatives for vulnerable young people spanning across different countries globally. In 2024, the Fund will allocate a substantial budget of €2.6 million, distributed among 61 associations. Each organization will receive funding ranging from €10,000 to €50,000. This financial support enables these entities to continue their remarkable work in enhancing mental health and well-being globally.

“Recent years have been extraordinarily challenging for young people facing homelessness across the South West of England. The majority of young people in our services have experienced social isolation and mental health challenges, such as depression and anxiety, which is often a result of significant childhood trauma. Unfortunately, overlapping crises in our local economy, housing systems and health services mean that young people very often struggle to find the assistance they need. With generous support from the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund, 1625 Independent People will help young people to improve their mental health through our specialist Wellbeing Coaching, access positive social activities through our Engagement Programme and build trusting relationships through our Peer Support networks. It will also enable our Wellbeing Coaches to train and support colleagues across our charity to recognise and support young people’s mental health needs.” – Dom Wood, CEO of 1625 Independent People, a 2024 Community Health Fund grantee.

Making a Difference Locally
Our grants are making a global impact, supporting various organizations and projects worldwide. Explore a detailed overview of the organizations funded by the 2024 Community Health Fund here.

Helping to advance tomorrow’s care equitably

Helping to advance tomorrow’s care equitably

Véronique Toully, Sustainability, Corporate Affairs and Risk

Vanco Vlastimi… Mon 27/02/2023 - 11:07

We believe we have a responsibility to help advance tomorrow’s care together – to contribute to a more sustainable future for people, communities and the planet alike. Last week’s publication of our 2022 Integrated Annual Report – Together advancing tomorrow’s care – is a mark of that commitment, showing our continued progress to create value for those we serve, now and into the future.

Patients are at the heart of everything we do at ��ֳ�. In 2022, we touched the lives of over 3.4 million patients by offering impactful medicines to communities around the globe, so that more people can live their best possible lives.

How do we get medicines to those who need them most? Sustainable access is a cornerstone of how we can make this happen. Our ambition is that by 2030, all people who need our medicines in countries where we operate have access to them in a manner that is viable for society, our investors and ��ֳ�. In addition, we aim to improve access to quality care and medicines for people with epilepsy in low- and middle-income geographies around the globe. These commitments stretch from how we provide and measure access to our solutions, to how we improve health equity among diverse patient groups such as the U.S., to reaching more people living with epilepsy in low- and medium income geographies.

Providing access to our solutions

As our Access Coverage Performance Index shows, more patients were able to secure reimbursement to ��ֳ� medicines in countries where we operate, with many of these reimbursement decisions happening faster than an industry benchmark (measured by our Time to Access Index). By working closely with healthcare systems, payers and partners to improve access to our solutions, we can have greater impact on patients and society – with access strategies integrated across our life cycle, from innovation and clinical development through to delivering for people who need our medicines. Every decision is made with an eye to how it affects those who put their trust in us: the people who rely on our medicines, families and caregivers, healthcare providers and payers, without losing sight of the financial performance that is needed for us to continue to innovate while rewarding our investors. This is a complex equation that requires the commitment of the whole organization to solve, as well as a constructive dialogue with decision makers in healthcare systems!

We recognize that in some healthcare systems, different kinds of coverage or high out-of-pocket costs may throw up further barriers to access, and we continuously look to find solutions and offer options like patient support and patient assistance programs to enable people who need our medicines to access them. Last year, we supported over 95,000 patients in the U.S. alone through these patient assistance programs.

Expanding access in low and middle-income geographies

Out of the 36 countries where ��ֳ� is present, eight are classified as low- and middle-income countries, where our access initiatives are tailored to the specific status of their healthcare system. 2022 brought the launch of our first social business pilot in Mumbai, India – where an estimated 144,000 people are living with epilepsy, and where persistent diagnostic and treatment gaps exist linked to awareness, healthcare capacity and medicine availability. Working together with local organizations and practitioners, health camps regularly take place directly in the community. Here, patients have easier access to diagnosis tools, and can benefit from tele-counseling services, home delivery of medicines, and discounted anti-seizure medications. The approach is set to serve as a social business model for improving epilepsy care in underserved communities in other geographies, and we plan to double activities in Mumbai through 2023.

Our philanthropic approach through the ��ֳ� Innovation for Health Equity Fund, managed by the King Baudouin Foundation, complements our social business efforts, with a particular focus on health system strengthening and improving epilepsy care in underserved populations. This includes supporting the relationship between the University of Ghent and the University of Rwanda to train health professionals, so more communities can have access to qualified neurological care. A new program to train physicians as neurologists welcomed its first cohort of physicians in 2022, with the aim of training 16 neurologists in the next five years.

Improving health equity among diverse groups

Health equity is also about deepening our local connections in the communities where we operate. This starts with understanding how diverse patient groups experience care and treatment, to better understand where social determinants of health may have exacerbated health inequities among historically underserved communities and define targeted approaches. In 2022, we continued to invest in social research and expanded work with patients in the Hispanic community in the U.S. with a pilot on epilepsy care. You can learn more about these efforts, as well as our U.S. pricing and access in our latest U.S. Sustainable Access and Pricing Transparency Report, published alongside the Integrated Annual Report.

Assessing how to move sustainable access even further

In 2022, we launched a new Sustainable Access Framework to guide our planning and execution to deliver better access to our solutions for people who need them, now and into the future. Our teams are trained to ask questions, ranging from which barriers are currently preventing patients from accessing the care they need, to how the existing health ecosystem infrastructure and funding mechanisms may impact on feasibility of solutions and spread these insights into the organization so that they can be acted upon. This in-depth understanding of existing barriers should improve the dialogue with local stakeholders to create innovate pathways and improve access in a way which is viable for society, our shareholders and ��ֳ�.

Every day, all of us at ��ֳ� work to honour our commitment to deliver moments that matter for people impacted by severe diseases, and to create sustainable value, now and into the future. Guided by impactful partnerships, a legacy of more than 90 years of scientific excellence and pioneering research, and a relentless drive to launch innovative medicines, we can look towards the future with confidence. Today, we are proud to be on that journey together, and to be progressing on our commitment to ensuring equitable access to medicines, now and into the future.

How the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund is making a difference in the lives of vulnerable young people?

Xavier Hormaechea, ��ֳ� Community Health Fund

Vandenbruaene … Tue 17/01/2023 - 08:52

Through its Community Health Fund, ��ֳ� supports vulnerable young people across the globe. In 2022, the Fund accepted new grant requests from non-profit and non-governmental organizations that had projects and work in place to help people between the ages of 15 - 24 with mental health disorders or young people who have been displaced due to conflict situations.

Indeed, the need has probably never been greater. While the global pandemic and different crises have affected us all deeply, analysis tells us that adolescents and young people have been particularly affected. Family stress and social isolation only exacerbated their emotional difficulties. In addition to the fear of the virus and the deep uncertainty brought about by misinformation, many face economic insecurity.

Just like the two previous calls for projects in 2020 and 2021, our 3rd call for projects, that closed in June 2022, had a phenomenal response. The ��ֳ� Community Health Fund received 144 applications and will donate over € 2 million to 44 non-profit associations to help people in need. These include organizations in countries such as Switzerland, Japan, the US, Belgium, etc. Each association will receive between €10,000 – €50,000.

"The Community Health Fund supported over 140 projects since 2020, and we are so happy that we have been able to help young people around the world,” said Xavier Hormaechea, Secretary General of the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund, “the associations that we're partnering with are so inspiring and they are able to make a real, positive impact in the field of mental health."

One of this year's beneficiaries is the C5 Georgia Youth Foundation (Georgia, USA), an organisation that helps high potential teens in under resourced communities pursue personal success. "We are so grateful to receive a grant from the ��ֳ� Health Fund to support the teens of C5 Georgia for our mental health initiatives. As many know, so much research has been done on the struggles that teens are dealing with in regard to the impact of Covid 19, especially for teens from under-resourced communities. From lost time of learning to the anxiety of a post quarantine world, we recognize that supporting our teens is needed more than ever. This grant will provide additional resources needed for our programs." – Jackie Cannizzo, Executive Director at C5 Georgia Youth Foundation.

Our grants are reaching organizations and projects around the world, you can find a full overview of the 2023 Community Health Fund organizations here.

Watch this space as in the spring this year we will launch our next call for projects.

Submit your project today and make a positive impact in vulnerable communities

Through its Community Health Fund, ��ֳ� supports vulnerable young people across the globe. In 2022, the Community Health Fund will accept new grant requests from non-profit and non-governmental organizations that have projects and work in place to help people between the ages of 15 - 24 with mental health disorders or young people who have been displaced due to conflict situations. The submission portal will be open from 1 May – 30 June 2022.

Making a difference in the lives of vulnerable young people

The physical, social, and psychological well-being of whole societies is being hit hard. After two years of challenging events including a global pandemic, climate change, racism, inequality, and heightened geopolitical tensions, many young people are facing additional insecurity.

Our collective responsibility to society has never been greater. The ��ֳ� Community Health Fund will support impact-driven organizations with a total of €2 million ($2.4 million) in grants this year. Non-profit and non-governmental organizations across the globe are invited to apply for funding to support projects that meet the following criteria:

Target audience: young people between the age of 15 – 24
Focus areas: mental health and/or displacement due to conflict situations
Timeline: Accepting submissions from 1 May – 30 June 2022
Grant amounts: Organizations can request grants between €30,000 ($36,000) and €50,000 ($60,000).

Helping organizations since 2020

Since its establishment in 2020, the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund has awarded a total of €4.45 million to over 100 projects around the globe. Organizations in the US, UK, France, Belgium, Canada, India, Ireland, and many other countries, have been able to support local communities through support from the Fund.

Gooikenshoeve, Belgium

The Gooikenshoeve helps provide stress relief and increased self-esteem by sheltering young people at a small farm in the middle of the countryside.

Durham Public Schools Foundation, USA

The DPS Foundation is a community-led effort to accelerate the transformation of Durham Public Schools for success and equity for every student.

CBM, India

CBM is a leading organisation in disability inclusive development. They received a grant to provide psychological support to youths with disabilities in COVID-19 times.

Making an impact in our communities

Xavier Hormaechea, ��ֳ� Community Health Fund

eCMSadmin Wed 08/12/2021 - 17:00

At ��ֳ�, we believe that companies must play a role in ensuring a sustainable future. And that means doing our part to help build a future for the most vulnerable in our communities. Beyond our business, we must seek to support those most at-risk in our communities.

Our goal is to work toward healthier communities in the countries where we operate. And we take a holistic view of physical and psychosocial well-being beyond our therapeutic areas when we talk about health.

While the global pandemic has affected us all deeply, analysis tells us that adolescents and young people are particularly affected. Family stress and social isolation only exacerbated their emotional difficulties. In addition to the fear of the virus and the deep uncertainty brought about by misinformation, many face economic insecurity.

Supporting those most at risk

The ��ֳ� Community Health Fund is a key part of our community involvement. The Fund is set up to support young people from the most vulnerable communities where ��ֳ� is active. And that includes racial and ethnic minorities, refugees and asylum seekers, those with disabilities and specific health conditions, those facing difficulties due to sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and those who are socio-economically disadvantaged. So far we have been able to support nearly 100 projects since 2020 globally aimed at positively impacting the lives of those in our communities.

Our first call for projects, which closed in September 2020, aimed to support organizations and projects contributing to understanding and reducing the medium- and long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the health of vulnerable young people. The response was phenomenal: 170 applications for support projects and 43 research projects from 24 different countries. We awarded a total of EUR 2,4 Million ($3 Million) to 44 inspiring support projects and six inspiring research projects.

Contributing around the world
Our second call for projects, which closed in July 2021, focused on the mental health of vulnerable young people aged 15 to 24.

Again, the response was phenomenal: 145 applications were received from organizations and projects positively impacting young people’s mental health. We’re proud to reveal that we are contributing grants to a total of 49 organizations and projects, grants of between €30,000 ($36,000) and €50,000 ($60,000) each.

From ‘Promoting Agency and Resilience Among Girls (PARAG) in urban slums in India’ through Mexico City’s ‘Fundación 5XDÍA AC’ to ‘Belgium Plays 4 Peace’, our grants are reaching organizations and projects around the world.

The size and broad reach of applications highlight how much young people across all corners of the globe need support. The pandemic continues to impact them. And while we are on the journey to recovery, recovering will take time. At ��ֳ�, we feel nobody should be left behind. Working together, we can build a stronger and more resilient future for all.

Building a stronger future together: ��ֳ� Community Health Fund second call for projects opening May, 15

Xavier Hormaechea, ��ֳ� Community Health Fund

eCMSadmin Mon 10/05/2021 - 11:00

The global pandemic has affected our society deeply physically, socially, and psychologically. The mental health and well-being of whole societies have been impacted. COVID-19-related psychological distress is widespread, with many afraid of the virus itself or of isolation brought about by lockdowns and social distancing. In addition, there are those facing economic insecurity as an added factor. And all the while, misinformation is causing deep uncertainty.

Quantitative and qualitative analysis tells us adolescents and young people are particularly affected. Emotional difficulties felt by young people are being exacerbated by family stress and social isolation, with some facing increased abuse, disrupted education, and uncertainty about their futures.

This is precisely why we focused our second call for projects for our ��ֳ� Community Health Fund on the mental health of vulnerable young people aged between 15 and 24. This second call will be open from May 15 until July 15, 2021.

We are looking to contribute a total of approximately €2 Million ($2.4 Million) to support around 40 impact-driven organizations and projects (excluding research projects) aiming to make a positive difference to the mental health of young people with grants of between €30,000 ($36,000) and €50,000 ($60,000) each.

Our ��ֳ� Community Health Fund
We launched the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic to support organizations that are active in communities where we have an office, addressing issues outside of our business scope. The pandemic only reinforced our commitment here at ��ֳ� to creating value for patients, now and into the future.

Managed by the King Baudouin Foundation, it aims to address health disparities among vulnerable populations. More specifically, the Fund wants to support young people from the most vulnerable communities where ��ֳ� is active, including racial and ethnic minorities, refugees and asylum seekers, those with disabilities and certain health conditions, those facing difficulties due to sexual orientation, gender identity and expression and those who are socio-economically disadvantaged.

Our first call for projects, which closed in September 2020, aimed to support organizations and projects contributing to understanding and reducing the medium- and long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the health of vulnerable young people. The response was phenomenal: 170 applications for support projects and 43 applications for research projects from 24 different countries. And we were proud to award a total of EUR 2,4 Million ($3 Million) to 44 inspiring support projects and six inspiring research projects.

The size reflects the huge amount of support that vulnerable populations continue to need. The extent of the health and economic crisis we are living through continues to prove massive, and the journey to recovery will take time. By working together, we will not just recover – we can build a stronger and more resilient future.

��ֳ� Community Health Fund: Created to support those in most need

Xavier Hormaechea, ��ֳ� Community Health Fund

eCMSadmin Wed 22/07/2020 - 15:00

The pandemic has touched all of us. We have changed how we live and how we work. Many have lost jobs, seen loss of income, experienced reduced access to healthcare, endured isolation, and faced new mental and physical stresses. Many have suffered ill-health or lost loved ones.

In every community in every country, the ‘new normal’ looks different than our pre-COVID world. Yet, while everyone has been impacted, some will face greater challenges in the medium and long-term than others. People who suffered the most from the pandemic and its consequences are: racial and ethnic minorities, children, young people, older people, socio-economically disadvantaged persons, un(der)insured or those living with certain medical conditions.

As we begin to realise the extent of the health and economic crisis we are living through, many vulnerable communities remain at risk.

The question is: what can we do?

At ��ֳ�, part of our response is the new ��ֳ� Community Health Fund. By supporting impact-driven support projects and social science research studies, the Fund aims to bring much needed relief and also strengthen relationships between ��ֳ�, communities and stakeholders.

It is important to highlight that this initiative goes beyond our areas of clinical interest; it looks outside the scope of our business and seeks to meet the needs of at-risk communities. When we talk about ‘health’, we take a holistic view of physical and psychosocial well-being rather than focusing on our primary areas of medical expertise.

In keeping with this ethos, I am pleased to see the first Call for Projects which aims to understand and reduce the medium- and long-term impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the health of vulnerable young people (15-24 years old), those who have experienced injustice, hardship, health disparities, and health inequities both before and since COVID-19.

Specifically, we aim to support programs and services with a focus on young people from the most vulnerable communities including racial and ethnic minorities, refugees and asylum seekers, those with disabilities and certain health conditions, and those who are socio-economically disadvantaged.

The Call for Projects targets existing, as well as new projects and initiatives within the geographic areas where we operate. Grants should be used within 12 months upon award of funding.

In addition, academic research teams/non-profit organizations pursuing cutting-edge social sciences research on the consequences of the pandemic on the health of vulnerable young people can apply for grants. Grants should be used within 24 months upon award of funding

The total budget for this Call for Projects will be in the range of €2 million to €2.5 million. Voluntary contributions from the donation campaign will be added to this budget. Support projects may apply for funding between € 30.000 and €50.000, while research initiatives may apply for a grant between € 50.000 and €150.000. The Fund will consider high impact support projects and research project proposals of a higher amount although, these grants will only be considered by the selection committee on an exceptionally basis.

We know the road to recovery is long. This is our first step to rebuilding more resilient communities and easing the burden on the most vulnerable. There is a long way to go – let’s go together.

New ��ֳ� Community Health Fund focuses on vulnerable people

Véronique Toully, Sustainability

eCMSadmin Thu 18/06/2020 - 02:00

COVID-19 is having a profound effect on our society. The pandemic will have a lasting impact on the health and well-being of populations, and the economies.

However, the effect of this crisis will not be felt evenly: some in our communities will be more deeply affected than others. At ��ֳ�, we have been exploring ways that we could help to reduce the burden on those at greatest risk, and to build resilience for the future to come.

To play our part in the global response to the pandemic, we are launching the ��ֳ� Community Health Fund. Managed by the King Baudouin Foundation, the Fund aims to address health disparities amongst vulnerable populations. In first instance the Fund will focus on contributing to understand and reduce the medium- and long-term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the physical, mental, and social well-being of vulnerable populations.

��ֳ� is making an initial €3 million contribution and will match voluntary financial donations from employees and anyone who wants to contribute. Grants will be available to organizations with impact-driven projects and initiatives aiming at improving the health of vulnerable groups. The Fund will also support social sciences and/or medical research outside of ��ֳ� therapeutic areas on the consequences of hazards and emergencies on vulnerable populations’ health. A first call for projects will be announced in the coming weeks that will focus on the medium-and-long term impact of the Covid-19 pandemic.

For us as a company – and as a group of people committed to advancing health – the pandemic has reinforced our commitment to ��ֳ� purpose to “create value for patients, now and into the future”. We know that it is through our strategic choices and our daily business that we can contribute the most to improve the health of people with severe diseases around us, including those from vulnerable groups. With our ��ֳ� Community Health Fund we want to start supporting organizations that are active in communities where we operate and which address issues that are outside of our business scope.

This crisis requires a collaborative response from across society. The ��ֳ� Community Health Fund is part of our support to vulnerable populations in communities where we operate.
