Never knew the CDC had a foundation.  I am somewhat confused about the need 
for a foundation but heck in this day and age anything goes I guess.  The CDC 
Foundation is "dedicated to fostering the attainment of the CDC's vision of 
healthy people in a healthy world through prevention."  Yes, I get it...I really 
get it.

"The CDC Foundation partners with corporations that share a strong commitment 
to helping improve the health and well being of people throughout the world. 
Partnerships with corporations have resulted in support for international 
scientists to train at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, a campaign 
to educate health care providers about appropriate antibiotic use, and an 
HIV/AIDS prevention program in South Africa. 

The following corporations supported CDC Foundation programs that were 
initiated as of July 2000 or are currently active. Click on the links below to learn 
more about the programs supported by each corporate partner. Last updated
