How You Can Help Transform Healthcare in Sub-Saharan Africa

At DE HEALTH, we envision a future where everyone, regardless of income or location, has access to quality healthcare. 

We’re working tirelessly to make this vision a reality in sub-Saharan Africa, and you can be a vital part of our journey. 

Your support, in whatever form it takes, can transform lives and empower entire communities. Here’s how you can get involved:

1. Share Your Expertise, by Volunteering with Us 

Your skills and experience are invaluable. Whether you’re a medical professional, educator, IT expert, or have expertise in agriculture, your contribution can make a real difference.

  • Medical & Nursing Specialists: Help train the next generation of healthcare heroes or provide direct care to those who need it most.

  • IT Experts: Help us build and maintain our telemedicine and eHealth systems, bringing vital healthcare to even the most remote areas.

  • Biomedical Engineer: Your expertise can help strengthen the knowledeg, skills and competencies of our local technicians in the use and maintenance hospital equipment.

  • Management and Leadership Expert: Help our staff and trainees discover and own the transformational power of critical thinking and “Soft Skills”, in management, leadership, strategic advocacy and team building. 

  • Agribusiness Specialists: Support our programs that empower communities through improved crop preservation, food security and nutrition, particularly for vulnerable women and children.

Volunteer with us in Africa or sponsor a Visiting Faculty Member to share their expertise and help build local capacity.

2. Sponsor Life-Changing Care 

Your financial contribution can directly impact lives by providing critical healthcare services to those in need. Here are just a few examples:

  • Sponsor Critical Surgeries: Fund life-changing surgeries for children with conditions like blindness, deafness, or other disabilities, and transfor their life prospects.
  • Sponsor a school child from a rural area or a poor family background suffering from poor eyesight and at risk of early dropout from school, to be fully assessed and fitted with a solid pair of glasses.

  • Fund Cataract Surgeries: Help restore sight to the still many in sub-Saharan Africa suffering from needless and preventable blindness from cataract, including newborn and todlers, who without timely surgery, will go blindfor the rest of their lives.

  • Support Agricultural Training: Empower rural women with training in modern agriculture, aquaculture, or income generating skills, providing them with sustainable income and improving theirs and their households’ nutrition.

3. Become a DE HEALTH Ambassador

Help us spread the word! As a DE HEALTH Ambassador, you can use your voice and network to raise awareness about our mission and impact.

  • African Diaspora: If you’re part of the African Diaspora, you can play a crucial role in mobilizing support for healthcare improvements on the continent.
  • Social Media Advocate or Influencer: Share our stories and successes on social media to inspire others to join our cause. Every little help counts.

4. Join Our Circle of Support: The DE HEALTH Honor Society

Make a significant impact by becoming a member of our Honor Society. Your generous support will directly fund our ongoing programs.

  • Fund Specific Projects: Choose the area of our work that resonates most with you – healthcare, education, IT, soft skills, or community development – and direct your contribution accordingly.
  • Honor a Loved One: Make a gift in memory of someone special, creating a lasting legacy that will benefit generations to come. Many options are available.

5. Partner with Us for a Healthier Future

We welcome partnerships with corporations, NGOs, and other organizations who share our vision. By working together, we can achieve even greater impact.
