The Astellas Global Health Foundation is a philanthropic organization formed in November 2018 dedicated to improving access to health in underserved global communities. Key areas of focus for the Astellas Global Health Foundation initially will be neglected tropical and communicable diseases, children’s health and mental health in low-income communities and low- and middle-income countries where Astellas, a company dedicated to improving the health of people around the world, does not have a commercial presence.

Additionally, Astellas Global Health Foundation will fund programs that build healthier communities and provide disaster preparedness and relief in these same geographies.
