Bridging Gaps in Health Care
Improving access to affordable health care remains one of the most critical and challenging issues facing society. Abbott's contributions reflect the areas where our expertise, knowledge and resources will have the greatest positive impact and results for patients and for our company over the long-term. For example, through a million-dollar partnership, we doubled the capacity of HealthReach, the only free health clinic network in Lake County Illinois, and provided financial support, product donations, technical assistance and volunteer support. more »
At Abbott, we are committed to doing our part to meet the health needs of people around the world.
Helping the Environment
Abbott enables resource conservation through a dedicated global fund for investment in environmental projects that do not meet traditional rates of return on investment. For example, we have implemented innovative water reduction and conservation projects worldwide that are projected to save 180 million gallons of water per year. Water reduction and conservation is one of the many ways Abbott is looking after the environment, preserving the earth's resources and advancing human health. more »
