Our Boss

Mirriam is who we work for.

Mirriam solidified our choice to start HealthEd Connect. She only had to gaze up at us with her big brown eyes and we knew our lives would never be the same.

We met Mirriam when she was two years old, HIV positive, and facing an uncertain future. She’s not unlike the other 12 million orphans caused by the AIDS crisis in Sub-Saharan Africa. But she immediately won our hearts, and we knew we wanted to work towards her wellbeing and the wellbeing of all other children like her.

Our Mission

Empowering women and children through evidence-based health, education, and advocacy

We accomplish this mission by training and partnering with volunteer community health workers in Zambia, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Malawi, and Nepal. We continue to build on our solid foundation of over 30 years experience with volunteer community health workers who are immersed in these communities full of families and their special needs.
