"Healthy Lives, Thriving Communities"
We are a community-based foundation in Kagadi District, Uganda, dedicated to improving access to healthcare, education, and sustainable livelihoods for vulnerable populations.
Founded by the Festo Family in 2025, KEHALF addresses the critical needs of Kagadi District.
After years of witnessing community members—especially mothers—struggling to access maternal services, adolescents dropping out of school, and families trapped in poverty, the Festo Family established KEHALF to create lasting change.
Our community of around 85 villages has no hospital. People lack proper knowledge of how to live healthier lives, and only 1 in 100 families has a graduate. We're here to change that through a holistic, ecosystem-based approach.
