PFD's two strongest international partnerships are with the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) and the United States Agency for International Development (USAID). These two institutions, alone, have provided more than $40 million in funding to PFD since 1993. 

PFD also works in conjunction with the CORE Group, an organic network of health professionals from non-governmental development organizations. Today, the network includes more than 50 member organizations and many individual partners to generate collaborative action and learning to improve and expand community-focused public health practices for underserved populations around the world. Through CORE, PFD shares knowledge and ideas about how to best help children survive.
