Foundation International is a Rhode Island and southeastern Massachusetts based all-unpaid volunteer, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization providing medical and humanitarian assistance to regions devastated by natural disasters and stricken with poverty. Its present thrust is to help the Aeta Tribal people, traditionally hunter-gatherers, who now live in poverty by operating a medical center servicing resettlement communities, doing yearly medical missions, providing for health care training, and assisting in livelihood programs. It was awarded the LinKaPil Citation for service to tribal groups by the President of the Philippines in 1998.
