I’m pleased and proud to say that Better Healthcare for Africa marked its 15th anniversary on February 9, 2024. BHA works primarily to assist St. Albert’s Mission Hospital in northern Zimbabwe. The hospital serves about 140,000 people. In addition, since 2015, BHA has provided supplies and support for cervical cancer screening at Karanda Mission Hospital. For me, this work has been an honor and a privilege that began when I first visited St. Albert’s hospital in December 2000 as a Fulbright Scholar.

Of course, BHA’s ability to assist St. Albert’s and Karanda hospitals is possible only through the support of our many generous donors. On behalf of BHA, I want to thank you all for your past contributions, and I hope you will continue to support our efforts in the future.
