Why we show up

Because no family should face hardship alone.

From care packages in Pennsylvania to maternal health initiatives in Ghana, HH Healing Hearts meets people where they are and responds with practical support, compassion, and dignity.
OUR CONVICTION

Healing is a human right — and nearly all maternal and infant deaths are preventable.

That conviction was born in a hospital ward in Wa, Ghana, where our founder saw mothers and newborns dying from causes that cost almost nothing to prevent.

It drives everything we do today. It is why we deliver care packages instead of just sympathy, why we show up with diapers, food, clothes, medication, and education instead of waiting for someone else to act — and why we measure our success one mother, one child, one family at a time.

Our Story

It didn't begin in a boardroom. It began in a hospital ward.

In 2013, while visiting a sick family member at Wa Regional Hospital in Ghana’s Upper West Region, Asther witnessed a heartbreaking reality that changed her life forever.

Asther witnessed mothers and newborns losing their lives. She believes timely medical care, adequate food and nutrition, and essential supplies could have prevented the deaths she witnessed. Many pregnant women could not afford prenatal care or even basic medical necessities. Doctors and nurses worked tirelessly, but often without gloves, stethoscopes, oxygen, or other critical supplies.

Seeing these challenges firsthand opened Asther’s eyes to the urgent need for support, compassion, and access to basic healthcare for vulnerable mothers and children. That experience planted the seed that grew into HH Healing Hearts Inc.

For years, Asther funded this work out of her own pocket. Today, HH Healing Hearts Inc. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit — and the mission belongs to all of us.

"The only difference between her story and a tragedy was where she happened to be."
