Orthopedic Care for Patients in Need

Launched March 2026

Orthopedic Care for Those Who Need It Most

Across rural Kenya, the most vulnerable patients suffering from orthopedic conditions are those living on just a few dollars per day, often without stable income, formal employment, or access to social support systems. These patients are frequently unable to afford even basic diagnostic services such as x-rays or laboratory tests, making surgical care entirely out of reach. As a result, treatable injuries are left unaddressed, leading to preventable disability, chronic pain, and long-term loss of livelihood. This program specifically targets this most indigent population, ensuring that those with the greatest financial and social barriers are prioritized for care.

How do HEAL Accounts work?

Funds in HEAL Accounts can only be spent on behalf of impoverished patients.

100% of funds donated goes to the project — Faith Aid (US) does not take any percentage for administration.

All beneficiaries must undergo a robust assessment by our case coordinators.

All beneficiaries must give sacrificially toward their own care — our case coordinators work with patients and their families to determine what that means.

Faith Aid has a grant agreement with AIC Kapsowar Mission Hospital that pays for medical care on behalf of impoverished patients.

Faith Aid's stewardship of funds on behalf of impoverished patients is recognized as the gold standard in accountability and best-practices.
