Taimaka

Taimaka has reimagined pediatric malnutrition treatment by making it more cost-effective and scalable. We’ve developed a malnutrition treatment model that is 1) 63% cheaper than legacy approaches and 2) simplifies clinical protocols so that digitally-enabled community health workers (CHWs) can deliver care directly to the most vulnerable communities.

So far, we’ve used our model to treat 7,000+ children out of existing government hospitals in northeastern Nigeria with world-class recovery rates of 95%+. Our track record has led charity evaluators like Founder’s Pledge to identify us as one of the most cost-effective nonprofits in global health, with a cost-per-life saved of $1,644.
