Edward Brehm

Edward "Ward" Brehm, is the former Chairman of the African Development Foundation.

"Brehm is founder, CEO, and chairman of two insurance consulting companies based in Minneapolis, MN, the Brehm Group and Capstone Advisors. He has also been actively engaged in African development issues – as a private citizen, church member, and member of two U.S. Congress delegations - for more than a decade. Mr. Brehm’s interest in Africa began in 1992, when he participated in a World Vision International tour of famine-affected areas of east Africa. His experience led him to establish the Windpump Project – a charity that assists rural communities in acquiring sustainable clean water technology – and he became actively engaged in building strong working relationships between business and community leaders in America and Africa. Mr. Brehm currently serves on the board of the Sustainable Healthcare Enterprise Foundation, and he is the author of two books on Africa, Life through a Different Lens (1993) and White Man Walking (2003).“ [1]
