About Us
Bimbinafrica ONLUS is an association dedicated to supporting and caring for children in Africa through concrete and sustainable health projects.
Our Story
Bimbinafrica is an Italian ONLUS association founded in 2011 with the intent to promote a series of projects to help the African population: it operates in the field of fundraising and through its initiatives, awareness meetings and events can support its projects.
The objective is therefore to support a series of projects ranging from malnutrition, to prevention and treatment of tropical diseases, to training local personnel so that they can become autonomous in health management.
Our journey begins in the Republic of Kenya: a country that has given much to the founding members and to which they are grateful.
Our Aspiration
Every child has the right to grow up healthy, educated, to be cared for and loved in an environment as familiar as possible and within their own community.
Our Approach
Bimbi in Africa Onlus operates through a structure that is as streamlined as possible, using the minimum number of staff and volunteers who help in Kenya and Italy, to ensure that almost all of the funds raised are allocated directly to projects.
Knowledge of the country and the reliability of local entities and associations that we intend to involve in the development of projects facilitate our task.
It will therefore be thanks to those who intend to support us that we will be able to guarantee continuity over time to our projects.
