    INTRODUCTION
 
In 1997, the Robert W. Woodruff Foundation provided $5 million, through the CDC Foundation, for the Cooperative for Assistance and Relief Everywhere (CARE) International and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to create a sustainable partnership in global health. The investment provided discretionary resources and an incentive for CARE and CDC to maximize each other's strengths. This grant enabled the CARE–CDC Health Initiative (CCHI) to fund 9 collaborative projects in Africa and Central and South America and 1 Atlanta-based project involving CARE and CDC headquarters staff. Now, 4 years later, CCHI is concluding its initial phase of activity.
