Midmark chair named to World Vision board

Midmark C o r p . announced its chair of the board, Dr. Anne Eiting Klamar, has been named to the World Vision board of directors.

World Vision is a Christian humanitarian organization dedicated to working with children, families and their communities worldwide to reach their full potential by tackling the causes of poverty and injustice. With staff in nearly 100 countries, World Vision serves all peo- ple, regardless of religion, race, ethnicity or gender.

Klamar said, “Through World Vision, I am working with some of the most amazing individuals committed to moving people out of extreme poverty. The relationship between Midmark and World Vision is an excellent example of how corporations and humanitarian organizations can work together to serve the world’s needs, especially by providing access to quality healthcare.”

Anne and her husband, Rob, also a physician, are true advocates for global health care efforts, particularly in developing countries where clinics may not have access to clean water and health care can often be rudimentary. They believe cleaner water is one of the pillars needed to improve health care. Anne and Rob also are part of the National Leaders h ip Co u ncil of World Vision and co-chair the Maternal/Child Health Sector at World Vision U.S.

In addi t ion, Klamar serves on the advisory board for World Vision’s Strong Women Strong World (SWSW), a community committed to mobilizing others to come together to empower women and girls to live life in all its fullness.
