Mission: Keep a Child Alive (KCA) was founded in 2003 by Grammy Award-winner Alicia Keys as an emergency push to get life-saving HIV medications to African children and families, who otherwise would not have had access to treatment.

KCA has a mission to improve the health and well-being of vulnerable children, young people, adults and families around the world, with a focus on combating the physical, social and economic impacts of HIV/AIDS.

KCA provides financial and programmatic support to 9 innovative, grass-roots programs in Kenya, Rwanda, South Africa, Uganda and India, serving over 150,000 people annually. With the help of its supporters, KCA continues to use its voice to raise awareness, mobilize people to take action, and rally resources in the global response to HIV.

Keep a Child Alive is a 501(c)(3) organization, with an IRS ruling year of 2005, and donations are tax-deductible.
