Major Activities

Activity 2

SOTENI AIDS Barefoot Doctors [ABD] : With SI's continued support, the AIDS Barefoot Doctors Program continued in three SVHs, Mituntu, Mbakalo and Ugenya. ABD are SOTENI-trained community health workers who support people living with HIV/AIDS [PLWHA]. Financed through a variety of grants, the ABD also have provided health-related services and education to the wider community. Since 2006, the ABD have made more than 5,000 home visits to people living with HIV/AIDS and have reached thousands more through public forums and other education sessions. In addition to providing home visits and education sessions, the ABDs are distributing water-purification sachets to households with PLWHA and others, and are educating the recipients in their use. As of the end of this period, 12 ABD and 2 ABD Supervisors were deployed.

Activity 3

Sponsorship: SI continues its Sponsorship Program by supporting 39 orphans and other vulnerable children in their quest for education. The support typically includes tuition, fees, uniforms, clothing, health care, food and psychosocial support. Students are matched up with sponsors from outside of Kenya whose annual sponsorship fees help to cover these expenses. The program promotes cultural interchanges, with sponsors receiving letters, updates, and photos from SOTENI and the students.
