Origin and nature of the institution

The Mexican Health Foundation (FUNSALUD), a privately owned institution dedicated to serving the community at large, is an autonomous, non-lucrative civil association, enrolled in the National Registry of Scientific and Technological Institutions of the National Council for Science and Technology (CONACYT). It is also recognized by the Finance Ministry as a recipient of donations authorized to expend tax-deductible receipts for any contribution or grant it receives.

Its mission is to contribute towards scientific and technological knowledge and to the study of health policies by promoting research, the development of highly-qualified human resources and technological development. Furthermore, it is able to identify and distinguish health problems and generate specific projects towards their solution.

FUNSALUD’s work to benefit the health of the Mexican population was recognized by the American College of Physicians who awarded it the 1998 E. Loveland Prize, never before awarded to a philanthropic institution outside the United States.
