The State Department announced nearly $2 billion in partnerships with faith-based groups, including World Vision, Samaritan’s Purse, and Compassion International.
“This historic announcement is the largest allocation of global health foreign assistance to faith-based organizations in over 20 years,” the State Department said in a media note.
From a $1.4 billion award, $850 million will be distributed over five years to support more than 2,500 faith-based hospitals and clinics across 17 countries.
Another $570 million will be provided to faith-based entities through Memorandums of Understanding reached with other governments.
The Trump administration has since folded USAID into the State Department, ending 83% of its programs.
