The Heart to Heart Foundation

The Heart To Heart Foundation is a Kenyan medical charity dedicated to the control prevention and treatment of heart disease in children. Heart to heart foundation was established in 1993 under the trustee’s act of the laws of Kenya.

The establishment of the Heart to Heart foundation was a realization of a dream of two founder trustees, Dr. Betty M. Gikonyo and Dr. Dan K. Gikonyo. The two heart specialists vision arose from the realization that the local heart specialists could not treat their patients to the logical end despite their experience and expertise due to the financial constraints experienced by the affected families.

High incidences of rheumatic fever and rheumatic heart disease coupled with high cost of treatment and the need to provide quality care to the needy children made the two cardiologists bring together a team of professional cardiologists and other people who shared similar concerns to establish the foundation.
