The Wellness Centre will provide care for the millions of women and children whose lives depend on it. The work of the centre extends beyond treating problems such as disease, gender violence and poverty; it also exists to prevent them. The Wellness Centre has been designed to foster a sense of community and comfort in an environment that can be intimidating and unfamiliar for the women and children who have never experienced medical care that is tragically hard to come by in a country in dire need of global medical attention. Too many are forced to go without care. Additional outreach and education on critical issues are needed to empower the women and children of Kenya to protect themselves.
The Foundation's goal has always been to come-alongside the Government of Kenya to create a holistic healthcare model from infrastructure to implementation. When our work is completed, and we remove ourselves from this project, we anticipate that our leadership will be replaced by an efficient Government of Kenya - Ministry of Health, a civil community and a growing private sector.
