Care begins with access.

Access Rwanda is The Basic Needs Program’s program based in Rwanda. We work alongside our partner, King Faisal Hospital, to provide life-saving procedures for children with heart disease.

In August 2026, we initiated our first week-long cardiac catheterization program, helping save the lives of a dozen children with heart disease.

We also support training programs within the country to help develop the next generation of expert practitioners.
