About the Campaign

To increase broader awareness of the healthcare worker crisis, the Touch Foundation launched Who Cares? — an advocacy and fundraising campaign. Some volunteers are running marathons while others “tweet” on Twitter or write blog posts — all addressing the healthcare worker shortage in Africa.

The campaign name — Who Cares? — is a double entendre: while more doctors, nurses and other health workers are needed to care for patients in Africa, we also hope to inspire more people to act to improve health conditions in Tanzania and throughout the developing world.

Join our worldwide movement to address the shortage of health workers in Africa. Together, we can create change!
