Programs
Four ways iron reaches her.
Every program does one job: close the gap between a woman who needs iron and the test, the specialist or the treatment she cannot get on her own. Pick the one that fits how you want to help.
The Second Infusion is live. Your infusion changed your life. Your second one changes hers.

What we run
Test, diagnose and treat every woman who needs iron, in nine days on average, whether or not she can pay. Each program funds a different part of that promise.

How they fit together
The model has four steps. Community screening and the Working Women Campaign find her. The Second Infusion and the Iron Circle pay for the specialist and the treatment when insurance will not cover them.
