Dear TUFH team,

Thank you so much for work you do to allow TUFH to “punch above its weight.” Our small but mighty TUFH team carries out the operations that move our mission from concept to reality. The world is often amazed when I tell them how this dedicated group of staffers - a fraction of the staff size at many similar organizations – is the engine that powers TUFH. Keep up the good work! Thanks again!

Sincerely
Bill Burdick
Secretary General, TUFH and Co-Editor, Education for Health
