HAIG’s vision is to transform lives through making healthcare accessible and affordable among the underserved in Kenya, across Africa and eventually globally. With the current pandemic situation especially here in the state of CA, HAIG has decided to volunteer and help swab, educate and vaccinate the local community to help curb this pandemic.
