Hanna’s Visit to AE Kenya, Soweto Kayole clinic and Kibera women Empowerment Program.
Hanna from Australia recently visited the Soweto Kayole Clinic and was delighted by the transformation it has undergone over the past six and a half years. “I am so impressed by the changes the clinic has made since my last visit with my church six and a half years ago” she shared. Her visit highlights the clinic’s ongoing progress in improving health care services for the community.
“I am thrilled to see that the clinic has made significant progress, now featuring an authentic maternity wing. This is a response to the needs of the residents of Soweto, Kayole, and fulltime of great anticipation and vision for AEEK to create a safe space for women. I am hopeful that through the maternity wing, many lives will be positively impacted,” Hanna expressed.
Hanna appealed for increased support from partners to help ensure the clinic remains relevant. “We continue to pray for ongoing donations and sponsorships to support the clinic’s operations as a health center. This will help us manage emergency situations and provide necessary medications, as well as ensure we have substantial assistance with drug supplies, staffing, and other essential resources,” she pleaded.
Hannah also visited our Kibera Women Empowerment program. She had the opportunity to meet Mercy Lungahi, one of the women who was part of the 2024 cohort. Mercy shared the significant impact the program has had on her financial situation.
“After our graduation, I spoke with our trainer and offered to assist in her tailoring shop, just before the Christmas season, I noticed she had numerous dressmaking orders. I felt confident in my skills and was able to create various styles, including skirts, dresses, and blouses. Through this work, I earned 4,000 Kenyan shillings. I believe I could have earned more if I hadn’t fallen ill during that period. However, after recovering, I received three orders from friends, which brought me an additional 2,500 Kenyan shillings,” she explained.
Hannah expressed her excitement about the formation of Community Transformation Groups emphasizing on the impact it will bring to the women and their households.
