How Is Your Money Spent?

Your donations are greatly appreciated: they pay for the day-to-day operations of our various programs and are distributed as appropriate.
The strength of HEAL Africa is in its Congolese vision and leadership: programs and initiatives are run locally, not instituted from a remote location with little understanding of the situation on the ground. This community focus is particularly important during this traumatic time because they can reflect rapidly-changing conditions.
