Our humanitarian foundation offers basic health care to isolated African villages, participates in the fight against HIV/AIDS, and contributes to the training of human resources both in Canada and in the host countries of Gabon, Bénin, Tanzania and Uganda.

Our mission statement:

The Canada Africa Community Health Alliance (CACHA) is a humanitarian organization that seeks to improve population health and provide HIV care and education to remote African communities. We accomplish this through the provision of adequate resources based on the determinants of health that include: childhood education, water and sanitation, women's rights, income security, housing and nutrition. We provide materials, infrastructure, and the exchange of skill development in order to create a positive outcome on health in supported regions of operation. We seek to engage in strategic partnerships and build programs to ensure sustainability, transparency and accountability.

Our goals:

CACHA works in partnership with many Canadian and African organizations in order to pursue these objectives:

  • To provide basic health care and contribute to the prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS,
  • To help isolated communities to become self-sufficient,
  • To train and supply local medical staff with necessary tools,
  • To offer the opportunity to students to do internships in southern countries and
  • To improve life conditions of isolated African villages.
