Who We Are?
The Global Access to Cardiovascular Therapeutics and Diagnostics (G-ACT) Foundation is a 501(c)(3) non-profit implementation science organization dedicated to advancing equitable cardiovascular care globally.ta
We generate rigorous, policy-relevant evidence by embedding research within real-world health systems. Our work focuses on evaluating, adapting, and scaling proven cardiovascular diagnostics and therapies to strengthen care delivery, inform decision-making, and improve outcomes in resource-constrained settings.
Founded by a multidisciplinary team of cardiovascular clinicians, statisticians, public health experts, and global health practitioners, G-ACT operates at the intersection of research, health systems, and policy guided by a core principle:
Where you live should not determine whether you live.
Get InvolvedThe Start
We began with a simple yet urgent idea: every person, no matter where they live, deserves access to life-saving cardiovascular care.
Settling
Through strategic partnerships and evidence-based approaches, we built the groundwork to deliver affordable diagnostics and treatments globally.
Today
Now, we're transforming access to cardiovascular health in underserved regions—expanding reach, advancing equity, and saving lives.
Mission
The G-ACT Foundation is committed to transforming cardiovascular health outcomes in underserved regions by expanding access to high-quality diagnostics, therapeutics, and clinical care. Through strategic partnerships, innovation, and evidence-based interventions, we work to dismantle the systemic barriers that prevent equitable heart health; one heartbeat at a time.
Vision
We envision a world where no individual's chance of surviving cardiovascular disease is limited by where they live, who they are, or what they can afford. G-ACT strives to build a global standard in cardiovascular access ensuring that lifesaving care reaches those who need it most.
