African Diaspora Medical Project

African Diaspora Medical Project

The African Diaspora Medical Project is a non-sectarian, not-for-profit medical relief organization that identifies and/or develops projects in Africa by providing the technical, personnel, and material assistance necessary to create successful health-related initiatives.

Founded in 2005 by Kim Williams and Dr. Lenox Dingle, the African Diaspora Medical Project implements projects in response to, and in collaboration with, medical colleagues throughout Africa and the Diaspora. In addition to fulfilling the health care needs of the people in Africa and of the nations of the Diaspora, the African Diaspora Medical Project is dedicated to educating the public and increasing overall donations to medical-related projects in Africa.

Through the promotion of partnerships and the mobilization of resources, the African Diaspora Medical Project has contributed to the improvement of the health of African peoples everywhere.
