Healing the Divide
Founded by Richard Gere in 2001, Healing the Divide is dedicated to collaborative solutions to humanitarian crises that threaten the development and welfare of marginalized communities throughout the world. Through unique partnerships, the New York-based nonprofit aims to create forums in which public health, social development and cultural preservation can thrive.
Healing the Divide currently operates The Tibetan Health Initiative, a program created in honor of Ribur Rinpoche, which provides health insurance to over five thousand Tibetan monks and nuns living in refugee settlements in India. The organization also runs the largest nongovernmental media campaign against HIV/AIDS in India, The Heroes Project which has been instrumental in mainstreaming HIV/AIDS messaging throughout the country.
