Health Focus Africa

Overview

Healthcare is a fundamental right, yet millions of Kenyans lack access to the most basic medical services. Accessing healthcare is an uphill battle in rural areas, with some areas having a doctor-to-population ratio of 1:50,000.

The challenges leaving communities vulnerable and in desperate need of support are many: limited healthcare infrastructure, shortage of skilled medical professionals, and daunting geographical barriers that isolate communities from essential healthcare services. But we are committed to changing this story.

 

These illnesses affect their life expectancy hence the urgent need for Health Focus Africa to partner with you to save lives. Seeing this need, we have always strived to partner with doctors off-duty to come to the medical camp sites to help diagnose and prescribe medicine or lifestyle changes that can ensure those who have been ailing for sometime have the right knowledge on what to take and how they should live.
 

Our work is purely non-profit. Therefore we always depend on volunteers who are willing to dedicate their time and professional expertise to a cause that seeks to help the less privileged.
