Dr. Alex Mushikita Nkandu
Cancer Palliative Care Initiative Problem Statement

Cancer is emerging as one of leading causes of death in Zambia, with many patients diagnosed at advanced stages. Comprehensive palliative care services are inadequate, leaving many patients to suffer without relief. Access to essential palliative care is limited, highlighting the urgent need for a programme that provides comfort and support to those facing the end of life.

How we are Changing Lives
Health

The Caring Hands Initiative in Zambia is dedicated to fostering health as part of its mission to empower communities and bring about positive change. Through community-driven initiatives, the foundation provides palliative healthcare, implements feeding programs, and ensures access to healthcare services. By addressing the underlying causes of socioeconomic disparities, Caring Hands Initiative in Zambia strives for sustainable impact, aiming to uplift individuals and communities by championing empathy, respect, and compassion.
