About Us
The Hoplites Africa Aid Foundation (HAAF) is a non-profit organization dedicated to empowering African communities through a holistic approach. Originally founded as the Hoplites Sickle Cell Foundation in April 2021 to support sickle cell warriors, it rebranded in November 2023 to address broader issues like education, economic empowerment, environmental sustainability, and social support. HAAF’s programs focus on improving health, fostering education, promoting economic independence, and supporting vulnerable populations. Through innovative technology, community-driven initiatives, and partnerships, HAAF aims to tackle inequality and create lasting, positive change across Africa.
