Nyamila Community Center provides clean water, food, school materials and access to medical services to 137 children and their surviving caregivers in 47 households. Nyamila is also working to generate more conversation about AIDS in the community, by empowering several HIV+ individuals to openly talk about the disease, something that was unheard of in this area until now!
Jennifer visited the site with her fellow students from the University of Oklahoma and representatives from the Maisha International Orphanage. Her friend, Mark Nehrenz, created a fantastic video documenting their trip to Nyamila this summer. Check it out!
