COVID-19 Response

Because of the generosity of Amref Health Africa’s supporters, we activated on-ground measures as soon as the danger of the coronavirus became known and Kenya’s first case was reported.

By immediately training Community Health Workers on COVID-19 in collaboration with health departments and community groups, and using technology to quickly spread information, Amref’s actions are already making a BIG difference.

Our strategy is to now scale up those actions and amplify their impact – quickly.

Your donation today will make sure the momentum builds so that together, we protect families in Kenya from COVID-19 until vaccines are available. The cost of non-action or delay will be measured in lives lost.

So far, Amref Health Africa in Kenya has:

Trained over 50,000 Community Health Workers (CHWs) across 31 counties on COVID-19 prevention and treatment using LEAP, our innovative mobile training app that is used to train health workers across sub-Saharan Africa

Partnered with local businesses including supermarkets such as Tuskys, manufacturers such as EABL and Coca-Cola and e-commerce companies such as Jumia, teachers, youth advocates, farmers and entrepreneurs to reach communities with health education, awareness and to provide face masks, hand sanitizers and soap
