Investing in local healthcare through community-driven innovation, infrastructure, and partnerships.
Community Health Alliance (CHA) is a Kericho-based, non-profit organization established in April 2024 by a group of long-term residents who share a deep commitment to improving the quality, accessibility, and sustainability of healthcare in Kericho County and the surrounding region.
Officially registered with the Government of Kenya on 9th April 2024, CHA was born out of years of planning, consultation, and reflection on the healthcare challenges facing local communities. While our registration marked an important milestone, it also signaled the beginning of a long-term, multi-decade commitment to strengthening healthcare systems for present and future generations.
Our Purpose
CHA exists to bridge gaps in healthcare access and quality by supporting the development of modern healthcare infrastructure, empowering healthcare providers, and mobilizing community and institutional partnerships around a shared vision of better health outcomes.
We believe that access to quality healthcare is not a privilege, but a fundamental right—and that sustainable solutions must be built locally, collaboratively, and with long-term impact in mind.
Our Vision
A healthy, thriving community where every individual has access to high-quality, affordable, and compassionate healthcare close to home.
Our Mission
To elevate healthcare standards in Kericho County and beyond by investing in healthcare infrastructure, supporting medical professionals, advancing health education, and fostering partnerships that strengthen the entire healthcare ecosystem.
We invest in the development and upgrading of healthcare facilities, physical infrastructure, and supporting systems. This includes modern patient care spaces, diagnostic capabilities, and the integration of information technology such as Electronic Medical Records (EMR) to improve efficiency, continuity of care, and patient experience.
CHA works closely with doctors, nurses, and allied health professionals to support their growth and sustainability. Our initiatives include:
Targeted investment in medical equipment and technology
Support for EMR adoption and digital transformation
Salary guarantees and loan facilities to assist new providers
Recruitment and placement of specialists to address gaps in care
Direct employment of healthcare professionals where necessary to meet community needs
We collaborate with local civic organizations, businesses, and philanthropic partners to address systemic healthcare challenges. Guided by the principle that “a rising tide lifts all boats,” we aim to build a coordinated ecosystem where resources, knowledge, and effort are shared for collective impact.
Sustainable healthcare requires well-trained professionals. CHA supports medical education through:
Scholarship opportunities
Advocacy for stronger local training programs
Hosting continuing medical education (CME) activities
Facilitating knowledge exchange between practitioners
Our long-term vision includes the establishment of a high-functioning, non-profit multispecialty hospital that will serve as a center of excellence for Kericho County and neighboring regions. This hospital will be designed to deliver patient-centered, affordable, and specialized care while upholding the highest clinical and ethical standards.
