Building a Rabies-Free Future for Africa
Our Mission: Saving Lives by Ending Rabies
Our mission is to eliminate rabies as a cause of human suffering and death in Africa. Through innovative research, smartphone-based dog identification, and community-led vaccination programs, we’re scaling up lifesaving rabies control efforts and building sustainable solutions that can work across the continent.
Our Vision: A World Without Rabies
A future where nobody dies from rabies—a preventable disease we’ve known how to control for more than a century.
The Deadly Numbers Behind Rabies
Rabies is estimated to kill up to 159,000 people worldwide every year.¹

Sustainable Solutions to Stop Rabies at the Source
We make rabies prevention more accessible by developing innovative delivery protocols that enable cost-effective vaccination to reach even the most remote communities. By targeting dogs – the source of over 99% of human cases – we stop the spread at its source and protect those most at risk, especially children.
Data informs us. People inspire us.
Impact drives us.

One Vaccine at a Time
For every 150 dogs vaccinated, approximately one person is prevented from being bitten by a rabid dog.
