A group of persons with a charitable heart composed of a naturopathic health practitioner, a religious brother, a young solon, a financial consultant from the provincial government, a radioman, a Businessman/Entrepreneur, a DEP-ED Supervisor, and a marketing specialist and formerly a seminarian, had convened together in the early part of 2008 and organized AHAPI, formerly known as Allied Health Assistance Program, Inc. which started on August 8, 2008 in Tagbilaran City, Bohol.
Considering the importance of linking with other professionals and other volunteers with varied skills, the organizers has considered to register a new name which is now registered at the Securities & Exchange Commission. The new AHAPI acronym would mean “Alliance for Health Aide Program, Inc.”
AHAPI is a non-governmental organization engaged in a charitable undertaking by offering Free Medical Consultations and Free Medicines to the 68,000 members of the Federation of Senior Citizens in the province of Bohol. It will also cater non-senior citizens and serves as a bridge to private hospitals, clinics, laboratories, dental clinics, & optical clinics wherein 5 to 40% discounts are offered to AHAPI beneficiaries. It is indeed an answer to the provincial government’s thrust for poverty reduction and development initiative.
AHAPI in its infancy had also established linkages in both private and government sectors including those in the grassroots level in order to properly addressed its charitable undertaking.
