RAMP provides HIV medications for established organizations overseas that work with doctors who prescribe medicines for individuals patients.
Sometimes these medicines are provided to patients on a temporary basis, until they are eligible to receive government assistance. In other instance, in collaboration with other groups, RAMP may be the only source of medications.
All medications are provided free of charge to our overseas groups. Individuals may be asked by their organization to pay a nominal fee, but no individual is denied access if they are unable to pay.
RAMP does not prescribe medications for specific patients or decide who will receive treatment.
RAMP participants are all volunteers and we adhere to the principals of the New Humanist Movement. Our non-profit status became official in 2004 and our Board was formed that same year.
In addition to medicines, RAMP also provides condoms to our organizations.
Who we are:
• Homer Hobi, President
• Howard Edelstein, Vice President
• Anthony Anchundo, Treasurer
• Br. Karekin Yarian BSG, Secretary of the Board
• Delilah Perea, Board Member
• Macinda (Max) Byrd, Board Member
