The founding and history of CFI are deeply rooted in its commitment to providing compassionate care and support to patients affected by communicable diseases, with a special focus on tuberculosis and leprosy. Since its inception, CFI has played a significant role in various initiatives aimed at combating infectious diseases such as tuberculosis and neglected tropical diseases. From its active involvement in multidrug therapy for leprosy to implementing community-based and hospital-based approaches to TB care, CFI has emerged as a crucial pillar of support for the country’s health system. Additionally, the organization has made commendable efforts in areas like community-based drowning prevention, urban health, and providing essential vitamin supplementation to mothers and children. By engaging and empowering local government units, health workers, microentrepreneurs, vulnerable groups, and other community actors, CFI is making commendable strides toward improving the overall health outcomes of the Filipino people.
