EarthEnable develops custom earthen floors for homes in Rwanda and Uganda to eliminate health issues commonly caused by dirt floors – such as asthma, diarrhea, and malnutrition – at a cost that is 75% cheaper than installing concrete alternatives. Over the last five years, GLG has facilitated four site visits by three Network Members to help the EarthEnable team improve the chemistry, durability, and carbon efficiency of their flooring solution.

COVID-19 impacted the work of every organization in the world. During this time of rapid change and uncertainty, GLG Network Members provided guidance and clarity to help Fellows adapt – including existing organizations that played a critical role in first response and new organizations created at the onset of the pandemic.  

GLG has supported City Health Works since its earliest days, in 2014, when the organization built a neighborhood-based workforce of health coaches to extend the reach of primary care into patients’ homes. At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, the organization expanded to include a medical provider organization and rebranded itself as CHW. In 2022, the organization’s medical practice was acquired by Oak Street, while its original health coaching model was acquired by Diverge Health. We’ve supported Founder Manmeet Kaur and her team through it all – helping them deliver exceptional health coaching, overcome new challenges, and meet increasing demand. 

Recidiviz uses data-informed tools to reduce incarceration in the U.S. by helping criminal justice leaders and agencies develop real-time pictures of their systems, diagnose issues, and drive meaningful change.

SIRUM is a nonprofit social enterprise that redistributes unused, unexpired drugs that would otherwise go to waste to safety-net clinics. Through conversations with GLG Network Members, the SIRUM team unearthed several new actionable sources for surplus medications. For example, they learned that when big retail chains acquire independent pharmacies, an average of $1-2M of usable medicine is destroyed – waste that SIRUM aims to prevent. 

We have partnered with several Fellow organizations focused on mitigating climate change and navigating its impacts.

GLG’s suite of product offerings have proven invaluable throughout our partnership with Global Press, an organization that trains and employs local female journalists to produce ethical, accurate news in the world’s least-covered regions. During their 2020 expansion, Global Press spoke with GLG Network Members to validate whether they could operate in 52 potential countries while ensuring the safety of their reporters, analyzing factors like security, law, political landscape, and more. GLG has also helped Global Press understand their readers by launching Voice of Customer surveys for audiences in Zimbabwe, Mexico, and Puerto Rico.

GLG supports a diverse array of mental health nonprofits serving at-risk populations and communities around the world.
