Sustainable Healthcare Enterprise Foundation

The Sustainable Healthcare Enterprise Foundation (SHEF) is a Philippines-based non-profit organization and social enterprise dedicated to improving access to affordable, high-quality healthcare and essential medicines. Established by the founders of The Generics Pharmacy (TGP), the foundation operates through a unique social franchising model that facilitates the distribution of generic medications to underserved and low-income populations. SHEF's primary initiatives include the establishment of community-based pharmacy outlets and the provision of health education and diagnostic services. By leveraging the supply chain and expertise of the generics industry, the foundation aims to significantly reduce healthcare costs for Filipino families. SHEF works in close collaboration with local government units and private partners to ensure the sustainability of its healthcare delivery programs.
