About
About Kapit Fund
Kapit Fund is a healthcare social enterprise connecting donors and partners with hospital-verified patient needs for underserved Filipinos.
What "Kapit" means
"Kapit" is a Filipino word that means to hold on — to hope, and to support one another through difficult times. It is the simple act of reaching out and holding someone's hand when they need it most.
Founder & CEO
Chihiro Takahashi
With roots in both Japan and the Philippines, Chihiro saw how access to healthcare can depend entirely on where you are born. Kapit Fund was built so that treatment depends on care, not on luck.
