It started with a girl who received a sponsorship for education at the age of 9 in a small village in Kenya. That girl went on to do great things. She is Maisha founder Beatrice Williamson and her desire is to give others that same opportunity for education and a "hand up." In 2013 the Maisha Medical Clinic was built and in 2015 fully licensed. Our goal is to see this clinic operating every day to provide medical help to those living around the village where we serve. In an area with the highest HIV/AIDS and malaria infection/mortality rates in Kenya and much of the world. Increase levels of HIV/AIDS care, education, counseling and awareness by holding classes at the Maisha Center and continuing our Living Positive home based care project to those infected in the village as well as in the Nyalenda slums.
