AFAS footprint PHC foundation
To be the Africa’s biggest healthcare foundation from Asia
We have nearly 30,000 patient visits each year and we're still growing.
The medical market in Africa presents significant growth opportunities, but it is important that governments, healthcare providers, and international investors work together to address the challenges in the sector and ensure equitable access to healthcare for all.
Maternal and child health
Poverty, gender inequity, and gender-based violence leave women and girls particularly vulnerable to health complications and illnesses. With a holistic approach to health care, and direct engagement with communities, we ensure that girls and women in Africa are safe and healthy their whole lives - so teenage pregnancy, female genital mutilation and child marriage can be prevented, deliveries of babies can be safe for both mother and child, and newborns receive the strongest start in life.
Water, Sanitation and Hygiene
42% of the populations located across sub-Saharan Africa do not have access to safe water and it is estimated that water-related illnesses kill more children under five than disease like HIV/AIDS, malaria, and measles combined. Through our Water, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) projects, we increase sustainable access to safe water and sanitation facilities in schools, and poor rural and urban communities through building facilities and water points, paired with training and education.
Education & capacity building
Health workers are important stewards of a community's health. We build the capacity of new health workers and upgrade the skills of existing ones at all levels: community health workers, youth advocates, clinical officers, nurses,midwives, lab technicians and more. To ensure sustainability, we also advocate to Ministries of Health to further investin health worker training, so that it continues long after we are gone.
Medical Outreach
We bridge important gaps in care through our range of outreach services that provide patients with quality medical care. Some of the services we provide include but are not limited to: providing free surgical care, monitoring noncommunicable diseases, and providing diagnostic services through laboratories. By addressing these gaps, we build reliable health systems that can treat patients with quality care, especially in some of the poorest and most marginalized rural and urban communities.
