We are Tiba

We are a foundation that believes access to quality health care is a basic human right. 
Unfortunately, in Kenya, access to quality health care is not an option for most.

Tiba is changing that. 

Our Solution

We partner with local Kenyan health care organizations and provide strategic funding,
medical volunteers and specialized guidance. 

Together, we are saving lives, transforming the health care  
landscape and contributing to community and educational opportunities, which build a strong foundation for economic development in the rural areas we serve. 

 
 

Our 100% Promise To You

100% DIRECT GIVING  

Every dollar you donate goes directly to the programs we support in Kenya

       100% LOCAL LEADERSHIP & STAFF

Our partners employ leadership and staff from local communities in Kenya

 100% TRANSPARENCY

We measure and assess our investments, and visit local sites regularly

100% Commitment to Sustainability

In just 12 years, our partners in Kenya have gone from covering 12% of the hospital’s expenses to 87%

Our Story

No one believed a comprehensive, community health care system - with a gold standard medical center at its heart - could be built. Our partnership with local leaders has made It happen! Let us tell you about it.
