20–30 tests daily
A partnership that changed access

From hours of travel to minutes of care.

A hemogram machine donated through Safaricom Foundation's Ndoto Zetu initiative brought essential blood testing directly to Ukunda — removing cost, distance and stigma for thousands of people.

"This machine is not just equipment — it is dignity."

Rooted on the coast

Close enough to listen. Connected enough to act.

Kwale & Tana River

Three friendly facilities, mobile outreach, community safe spaces and demonstration farms form a connected support network across Kenya's coastal corridor.
