About This Project
We are a Christ-led ministry providing high-quality, evidence-based maternity and child health care and social support to a slum community. Our population comprises some of East Africa’s most vulnerable and at-risk women and children. Through this centre we provide clinical care, timely transfer access in cases of emergency, regular health screening and treatment of common infections (syphilis, HIV, typhoid, malaria), social support, a food bank when supplies are available, and a safe house for mothers requiring protection from abusive relationships.
We provide a facility for mothers to meet to support each other weekly in a savings/ business group. And, of course, a safe place to come for spiritual support and prayer.
