KHF immediate former Chair Dr Amit N. Thakker shared the journey with KHF since 2015 – 2021. He highlighted major achievements and milestones during his tenure as the board. He stated, “We started with just seven founding members and our current membership stands at 200. Each member believes in the cause of influencing policy to create a more enabling environment, promoting affordable, accessible, quality healthcare for all. Since the beginning of my term in 2015, our membership has grown at an average rate of 20% per annum. We have seen membership funds grow, allowing us to do more policy and advocacy work. Our annual revenue has multiplied seven fold since 2015. This means we’re doing something right.”

We take this opportunity to thank him and his board for the huge milestones achieved during his time.
