Our Mission

To work together with other stakeholders for the social good and greater benefit of all people living with Haemophilia and other bleeding disorders in Kenya.

Bleeding disorders are conditions characterized by abnormalities in the blood's ability to clot properly, resulting in prolonged bleeding or excessive bruising even from minor injuries.
Bleeding disorders can be genetic or acquired. Genetic bleeding disorders, such as haemophilia and von Willebrand disease, are inherited and result from mutations in genes responsible for blood clotting. Acquired bleeding disorders may develop due to factors such as medications, liver disease, or autoimmune conditions.
Bleeding disorders can impact daily life by increasing the risk of bleeding episodes, affecting physical activities, and requiring regular medical care and monitoring.
With proper management and care, many people with bleeding disorders can lead active, fulfilling lives. It's important to work closely with healthcare providers to develop an individualized treatment plan and to take steps to prevent injuries and bleeding episodes.
