AWS Health Equity Initiative
Thank you for contacting Amazon Web Services!
Our health is largely determined by where you are born, how you grow up, our work, and where we live. For the majority of people, these factors are outside of their individual control, and across the globe there exists a stark disparity in health outcomes.
In 2021, AWS pledged to donate $60 million over three years to accelerate research and innovation to advance global health equity. In achieving this commitment, AWS prioritized projects that:
- Increase access to high-quality, culturally responsive health services
- Increase access to responsive social and community support
- Mitigate the impact of climate change on health and quality of life
We are proud to announce that, as of July 2024, we have fulfilled our 2021 pledge through the AWS Health Equity Initiative, supporting customers utilizing AWS cloud technology to make a difference in the health and lives of underserved populations.
As of June 2024, over 337 global customers have received credits to help change the landscape of health equity, bringing digital solutions to diverse communities and positively impacted over 109 million end users.
The AWS Health Equity Initiative is not currently accepting any more applications. We encourage you to explore the Imagine Grant, AWS Artificial Intelligence Accelerator, AI for changemakers and the AWS Activate program to see whether there may be other options to support your use of AWS services.
