Because Good Health Should Not Stop at the End of the Road.
Dear Friends of HAS,
An ancient proverb tells us that the best time to plant a tree was 20 years ago. The next best time is today. This truth applies equally well to the fight against malaria, hunger, poverty and the destruction of our natural environment, including our fertile soils and abundant oceans. Health Access Sumbawa works at all of these missions with a sense of urgency.
Individual actions can make a huge difference, especially when we join in common cause with others. So, look us over. Donate if you can. And thanks for dropping by.
Gratefully,
Jack
Jack Kennedy, Founder & President, Health Access Sumbawa Inc.
"Health For Remote Communities" is what we do. Health Access Sumbawa (HAS) operates exclusively for charitable and educational purposes within the meaning of 501 (c) (3) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code.
In 2014, founder Jack Kennedy contracted malaria following a visit to Sili village on Cempi Bay in Central Sumbawa. This personal experience opened his eyes to the unsolved problem of malaria in Eastern Indonesia. Later that year, Jack joined with two close friends to provide the seed money to begin HAS’s work. The original mission was to control malaria in three hamlets named Sili, Maci and Panubu within three years for “the price of a car”. HAS accomplished its initial goal in November of 2017. There remained much more to do, however.
What started as a 3 year project for founders Jack Kennedy, Pete Skinner, & Donna Flynn has grown into a small group of registered not-for-profit charities in three countries.
