Healing Hearts is a Sufi Charity with projects in The Gambia, Timbuktu and Kenya. It started as a small venture to send wheelchairs to The Gambia. Word spread, and as donations started coming in we started to support a school too. In the meantime we are building our 4th school. We also help the local hospitals, distribute mosquito nets and build wells. Currently we are building a traditional healing centre in Timbuktu.

During the last centuries no other continent has been made to physically suffer the way Africa has. At the same time this material poverty is often connected to spiritual greatness. It is here that your heart opens up. Africa has soul. Even the ground vibrates, as if it is breathing. You see people who have nothing, not even limbs of their body. And still, they are smiling. They have the kind of enlightened faces that can only come from a peaceful heart.

Materially Africa’s suffering is screaming at anyone who cares. But in it’s midst a heart is beating which we are part of.
