other requirements. Requestors will receive an e-mail notification when the request is<br />

Policy-focused healthcare charitable contributions are contributions to third-party not-for-profit<br />
organizations where the funds are to be used for the organization’s specific mission-related activities<br />
that align with <strong>Pfizer</strong>’s public policy goals. This includes, but is not limited to, patient education on<br />
public policy issues, policy-related access to healthcare issues, <strong>and</strong> support of charities whose general<br />
mission is to further healthcare policy (<strong>and</strong> does not include healthcare professionals’ continuing<br />
medical education or disease state, medical or clinically-focused activities).<br />
Example: Charitable contribution to the Georgia Medical Society for education of members<br />
on healthcare reform.<br />

benefits to <strong>Pfizer</strong> (<strong>and</strong> are therefore ineligible for sponsorship funding).<br />
