Founded in 2014 by Florence Ngoyachisuko, Healingwound Association began with a single conviction: to walk that mile and heal the broken hearted. What started as passion-driven outreach in Walvis Bay grew into a registered nonprofit serving the Erongo Region and communities across Namibia.

HEALINGWOUND ASSOCIATION (HWA) is a registered NPO (21/2017/0967) established in 2014. Its main aim is to offer psycho social support & counseling, wellness activities, soft skills training, capacity building and advocacy within the Erongo Region and other parts of the country.

HWA's main aim is to offer community development initiatives in the community to help fill the gaps and assist Stakeholders, Local Council & Authorities towards a collective goal of community growth, sustainable development in addressing negative social ills that hinder community growth.

When COVID-19 arrived, HWA faced its hardest season — operations scaled down, resources stretched thin, and the communities we serve needed us more than ever. We did not disappear. We held the line, adapted, and preserved the relationships built over a decade of faithful service.

Today, HWA is relaunching stronger — reuniting programs, deepening partnerships, and expanding our digital presence so every woman, girl, youth and survivor knows they are not alone. The wound may be deep, but healing is possible — one mile at a time.
