Our Mission

At Heart to Heart Congo, our mission is to empower individuals and communities in the Democratic Republic of Congo through health awareness, providing education, and offering tools to mitigate the risk factors associated with chronic diseases. We are dedicated to bridging the gap in wellness attainment, both in Congo and among the Congolese diaspora, through collaborative efforts, compassionate care, and sustainable programs. 

 

With a family-driven approach, we aim to create a brighter, healthier future for all.  Knowledge is the key to empowerment.  Every individual deserves access to quality healthcare and the opportunity to lead a healthier, more fulfilling life.

​

The Democratic Republic of Congo (DR Congo) is a nation of immense beauty and rich cultural heritage.  Although persistent challenges threaten the well-being and future prospects of its people, Heart to Heart Congo was founded to respond to specific and complex issues that demand innovative solutions.  These are our focal areas and methods:
 

1: Healthcare Disparities

  • DR Congo faces significant healthcare disparities, with limited access to essential services, especially in remote regions. Many Congolese struggle to obtain even basic healthcare, resulting in preventable illnesses and suffering.

 

  • H2HC APPROACH: Healthcare Initiatives

 

  • We collaborate with local healthcare providers, mobilize medical volunteers, and establish health fairs. These events provide essential health screenings and consultations with healthcare providers.  These events ensure access to basic healthcare services for underserved communities.
     

2. Educational Barriers

  • Access to quality education remains a challenge in DR Congo, particularly for marginalized communities. High costs, insufficient infrastructure, and inadequate resources hinder the educational attainment of many young Congolese.
     

  • H2HC APPROACH: Educational Support

    • Our scholarship programs and educational grants are tailored to remove barriers to quality education. We provide financial support to students, empowering them to pursue their educational goals.

 

3. Nutritional Insecurity

  • Malnutrition and food insecurity persist as critical issues, affecting the physical and cognitive development of children and overall community well-being.
     

  • H2HC APPROACH: Nutritional Assistance

    •  We partner with local farmers and suppliers to source food products. We distribute these resources through local church and orphanage partners, ensuring that families have access to balanced and healthy meals.

 

The Heart to Heart Congo organization recognizes that these issues are interconnected and require multifaceted solutions. Our mission is to address these challenges comprehensively and collaboratively, in order to create sustainable change and aspire to build a brighter, healthier future for the people of DR Congo.
