Help build an emergency healthcare system in Kenya that connects people to the care they need, when they need it most.
Your donation helps communities respond to emergencies, ambulances reach patients, and emergency department teams provide lifesaving care.
Every contribution counts.
Help train community responders to recognise emergencies, provide immediate first aid and call for help.
Help establish public ambulance dispatch systems and train EMS personnel to coordinate ambulance responses and connect patients with receiving emergency departments.
Help train public emergency department staff to rapidly assess, resuscitate and treat patients.
Together, these activities strengthen the emergency care pathway—from the community to the ambulance to the emergency department.
Support emergency care in Kenya by purchasing EMKF merchandise. All profits help fund our work to strengthen emergency healthcare systems in Kenya to save lives.
For donors seeking to make a larger contribution, an estimated USD 200,000 per county supports emergency care planning, ambulance dispatch system establishment, community responder training and emergency department workforce training.
Based on EMKF’s implementation experience, this investment helps lay the foundation for a coordinated county emergency healthcare system.
*The estimate excludes equipment and major emergency department renovations. Costs vary according to county needs and the scope of support.
| Component | Estimated investment |
|---|---|
| County Emergency Medical Care Plan development | USD 12,500 |
| County Emergency Medical Services Plan development | USD 12,500 |
| Ambulance dispatch system establishment | USD 45,000 |
| Community responder training | USD 30,000 |
| Emergency department workforce training | USD 90,000 |
| County engagement and coordination | USD 10,000 |
| Total per county | USD 200,000 |
You can contribute towards an activity, fund a complete component or partner with us to support a county.
