African Family Holistic Health Organization

African Family Holistic Health Organization The African Family Holistic Health Organization ( AFHHO) was created in 2014 in part by Portland's Swahili-speaking, community health workers (CHW)

AFHHO has provided workshops on healthcare navigation, focusing on understanding how to navigate a complicated healthcare system, accessing preventative healthcare, understanding how and when to seek emergency and urgent care, and breaking down barriers to access needed services in a timely manner. AFHHO also was one of few organizations to provide workshops on preventative health care during a possible Ebola outbreak among the Multnomah County's African refugee and immigrant populations.

🌿 Gratitude Grows Here! 🌿

We want to extend our heartfelt thanks to one of our incredible local farmer who has generously donated/donates fresh produce to AFHHO for our community members. 🍅🥬🥕

Your kindness is nourishing more than just bodies—it’s feeding hope, connection, and wellness. Because of your support, families in our community are enjoying nutritious, farm-fresh food they may not otherwise have access to.

Thank you for planting seeds of generosity and harvesting joy for so many. We see you, we appreciate you, and we are so grateful. 💚

…..
In the midst of chaos, calm voices rise,
We gather with books beneath hopeful skies.
Page by page, we plant each seed,
As parents take turns to guide and read.

A story shared, a lesson learned,
In every word, young minds are turned.
For knowledge blooms and wisdom grows,
When reading becomes the path we chose.

Daily, weekly, month by year,
We read aloud so young hearts hear—
That power lives in every line,
And reading brings a light that shines.

APPRECIATION POST TO -

We’re honored and deeply grateful for our incredible partnership with PDX Diaper Bank over the past 6 years— together, we’re making a real difference!

Thanks to their unwavering support, we’re now able to provide 4,000 diapers every month to Black families in the tri-county area of Oregon, helping meet a basic but critical need with dignity and care.

With just a low annual fee, this partnership helps us bridge the gap for families in the Black diaspora who are too often overlooked — ensuring babies stay clean, healthy, and dry.

Because diapers aren’t a luxury. They’re a necessity.

Thank you for being part of the village!

Will you help us continue this work?
Your donation helps us get essential supplies into the hands of caregivers who are doing their best with limited resources.

AFHHO will always be deeply appreciative of the generosity of . Their continued investment in our maternal health programs—especially Watoto Wetu—means the world to us.

Every other month, they donate 20 thoughtfully packed boxes to our refugee and immigrant moms. These boxes aren’t just gifts; they’re reminders that our mamas are seen, valued, and supported.

We are so grateful, and we will never stop being grateful.
