For over fifteen years, Rick’s Heart Foundation has supported Korle-Bu Neuroscience Foundation, and we are so proud of their incredible work across West Africa. Please enjoy KBNF’s 2024 Impact Report overview below.
Dear Rick’s Heart Foundation,
Our latest Annual Report is hot off the press. We are thrilled to share this 52-page book with you, showcasing the work of KBNF in 2024.
One year.
Seven container loads.
35 surgeries.
42 distributions in Liberia
4,780 volunteer hours
A new warehouse location in Canada.
118 West African nurses connected in a network of support
Many stories of transformation.
So much heart.

Below is a glimpse of the Annual Report we shared on Instagram:
On Thursday, May 8, we loaded a container destined for Kanad Hospital in Sierra Leone.
We shipped:
8 beds
7 stretchers
1 shower bed
2 cribs
1 baby warmer
3 exam tables with supplies
4 nursing carts with supplies
16 stacking chairs
11 over-the-bed tables, and more!
We also sent walkers, canes, crutches and a wheelchair, as well as lots of boxes of medical supplies.
Thank you to all the volunteers who came to help out on a weekday!
This month, our Volunteer Saturday happened on May 24. Volunteers spent a lovely, sunny day sorting medical supplies and helping to get ready for our next load to Liberia. We were able to sit outside for lunch and everyone shared something they are celebrating in their lives. One of our volunteers recently celebrated a significant wedding anniversary, another volunteer received a great internship, while another Grade 12 student is graduating. We celebrate our volunteers and we are so grateful for all the ways volunteers show up to support this work.
