Free Screening Medical Camp (December 14th, 2024)

On Saturday, December 14th, we hosted a complimentary Medical Screening Camp at Dr. Kamundia Secondary School. More than 50 patients received essential health checks, consultations, and counseling from our dedicated team of volunteer healthcare professionals.

Comprehensive screenings included blood pressure, blood sugar, and general wellness evaluations. Patients received professional guidance, personalized advice on health management and preventive care. One of the goals for this community outreach aimed at reinforcing the importance of regular check‐ups and mental well-being.

We're grateful to our medical volunteers and sponsors who made it possible to provide these vital services to the community free of charge.

Kicking off the boot camp bright and early on December 14th, the Githima 10KM Charity Walk saw over 100 participants walking side by side to raise awareness and support for youth mental health programs.

    Making a Difference

    In March 2024, the Githima Project in Mukarara, Kenya, achieved a significant milestone. We successfully organized a 10km awareness walk, held a fundraiser, and broke ground on land newly purchased to build a special school for children with disabilities. This mission was a powerful step forward in our commitment to creating inclusive educational opportunities and raising awareness about the needs of children with disabilities in the community. We sincerely thank all our supporters and wellwishers for your dedication to making a positive difference in the lives of those in need.
