Adam and Tamai Heaton are the Global Directors of the Heaton Foundation.

Born in Australia, Adam has engaged in missions work in southern Africa since he was 20 years old (in 1998), meeting the physical needs of children, youth and adults and pointing them to Christ.

Born in Zimbabwe, Tamai has ministered locally to the same cohort since around the same time as Adam.

They met on the mission field in 2001 while working with homeless children on Harare's city streets, called street kids. They married and built an orphanage in 2002.

To this day, they continue spearheading mission endeavours in Zimbabwe.

They have three children, aged 23, 21 and 19, and reside in remote eastern Zimbabwe and the Snowy Mountains of Australia.
