2020 was an unprecedented year. We had to reorganize to keep up with our budget's increase and the multiplication of projects. And to face the health crisis, we quickly adapted our operations so that supported projects could continue, and vulnerable populations would not be further marginalized. We released exceptional funding for masks, equipment and inputs. We also funded renovations in health centers to allow them to serve patients while observing protective measures.
