New Delhi, New Delhi, October 31, 2009 /India PRwire/ -- The Aidmatrix Foundation Inc. today announced its partnership with Project HOPE, an international health education and humanitarian assistance organization, to use the Aidmatrix In-Kind Donations Management Module, a powerful communication system, to connect HOPE’s international partners in more than 35 countries worldwide.

“The partnership with Aidmatrix will strengthen Project HOPE’s processes and operations and help us achieve our mission of creating and delivering sustainable advances in health care to developing nations around the world,” said John P. Howe III, M.D., President and CEO of Project HOPE.

With relief partners on five continents, HOPE will rely on Aidmatrix to help remove barriers and improve efficiencies for better communications between all parties.
