Company Description

Amref Health Africa is a Kenyan-based non-governmental organization focused on providing community and environmental healthcare to African countries. It is considered one of the most prominent health NGOs in Africa

Previously known as The Flying Doctors of East Africa, Amref was founded in 1957 by Sir Archibald McIndoe, Sir Michael Wood, and Dr. Thomas D. Rees. While its original focus was to provide health services to patients in remote areas, it began providing education to other Africa-based health workers as early as the 1970s.

During the 1980s and 90s, Amref expanded in scope, collaborating with other international aid agencies and working directly with the Ministries of Health in Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda on community health-based projects, focusing on preventing HIV/AIDS.

In the 2000s and 2010s, Amref performed thousands of reconstructive surgeries on Africans with cleft lip and cleft palate (CLP) alongside the non-profit organization Smile Train.
