The Impact of the GlobalGiving Community on FH

By Leandro Cahn | Executive Director

Summary
This quarter, Fundación Huésped celebrates 36 years of unwavering commitment to health and rights. Thanks to the GlobalGiving community, we’ve deepened our impact—from reaching over 5 million people through a massive World AIDS Day campaign with top streaming partners to providing more than 3,400 free health, legal, and educational services. This report highlights how collective solidarity continues to turn local challenges into life-saving access and community empowerment.

Our Impact

Between October and January, we conducted 1,673free tests for HIV and other STIs, maintaining a consistent presence both at our health center and through strategic community outreach.
Our legal team provided expert guidance and support to 1,540 individuals, ensuring that barriers to health and discrimination are addressed through professional counseling.
We provided specialized psychological care to 195 people, offering a safe space for emotional support and mental health wellness.
In the last quarter of the year, 146 people participated in our educational programs, strengthening the reach of comprehensive sexual education.

Recent Key Activities

For the first time, we participated in the Buenos Aires Pride Parade with a dedicated float. This initiative, supported by various artists, served as a powerful awareness tool, celebrating diversity while channeling visibility directly into our health services.
To commemorate World AIDS Day, we partnered with OLGA, one of Argentina’s largest streaming platforms, for a massive awareness broadcast. Our overall campaign reached over 5 millionpeople across traditional media, digital platforms, and social networks. On that day alone, we conducted 127 free HIV tests in public spaces, bringing diagnosis directly to the community.

As we celebrate our 36th anniversary, we look back with prideon how far we have come and look forward with determination. This milestone is a testament to the collective power of solidarity that continues to guarantee healthcare as a fundamental right for all—a mission that is only possible thanks to your unwavering support through GlobalGiving, which transforms every contribution into the essential care and dignity that our community deserves.
