Empowering the people of Africa
to survive the HIV/AIDS Pandemic

Mission Statement

HEART and our partners are empowering current and future generations of Kenyan people through disease prevention education and economic development. This is accomplished through Christian compassion, health interventions and resources as we promote physical, spiritual and emotional health.

HEART is a Christian faith-based non-profit (501 (c) 3) organization

The focus of HEART is to empower the people of Africa to survive the HIV/AIDS pandemic through facilitating integrated collaborative projects such as: HIV prevention education messages combating the spread of HIV/AIDS, TB, Malaria, and Typhoid; developing economic infrastructure, gender equality, leadership development, and building capacity for good governance and by working closely with local leaders (teachers, pastors, chiefs etc.) in establishing “Community Based Organizations” (CBO) at the grass roots level.

HEART assists these CBO’s to launch sustainable micro-enterprise projects which empower those affected by HIV/AIDS to care for themselves, and the orphaned and vulnerable children of their families and villages.

HEART is a registered TRUST in Kenya and has a fully qualified board of Kenyan Trustees who work with the American counterpart of HEART a 501 C-3 organization comprised of health professionals and concerned business leaders.

Kenya

 

HEART has hosted over 600 volunteer team members for two week journeys to Kenya. These teams have consisted of men, women and youth interested in exercising their global citizenship by sharing their time and talents.

Some teams are from the community organizations, some are church groups while others are medical teams and construction teams. What all of these teams share is a desire to bring hope to an area badly affected by the AIDS pandemic and other diseases.

There is much information contained on our website, and we invite you to keep reading. If you still have questions, please contact us.

Perhaps some day we will say, “Jambo”, Swahili for Hello, to each other in Kenya!

We realize that not everyone can come to Kenya, but many would still like to be involved in our efforts. For this reason, we have provided some stories that will demonstrate exactly how others in the US have shared their time and talents with HEART.

The possibilities are really only limited by our creativity.

If you have an idea of how you would like to become involved, please contact us so we can join hands across the US on behalf of our brothers and sisters in Kenya.

It is our hope that you will find inspiration in these passionate and personal stories:

Over the past 7 years, HEART has reached over 140,000 people in Kenya. We owe this accomplishment to people like you:

  • People who want to make a difference in the lives of those fighting to survive the AIDS pandemic.

  • People like you who see the value in educational programs and ancillary projects that are building up the future generations of Kenya.

You can help us by making a general donation or by donating to a specific project. General donations are allocated to the most urgent needs as defined by the Kenyan and American Managing staff and Board.

The HEART board and staff worked diligently to keep overhead costs to a minimum. As a result, we are pleased that over 90% of your donation will go directly to the field.

Asante Sana!
