"the model of donation and philanthropic expediency cannot solve the fundamental disconnect between the monopolistic model it underwrites and the very real desire of developing and least developed countries to produce for themselves.

My company generously matches donation via their giving website. Today they match 150% so I found Open Insulin via Counter Culture Labs. I am hoping that it actually links to @OpenInsulin oh the uncertainty of middle man-giving!

We are planning on making insulin available for $7/vial or $14/month, lower than the $35 average co-pay.
This is ~10% of the price of insulin in the US and brings us much closer to the prices patients pay in other countries.
