Norman provides support to families in Rota, Kenya!

Dunga - Norman and family
Dear Lyndal, Molly, Casey, Nancy N, Andrew, Patricia, Diane, Lindsey, Jennifer, Madhan, Renee, Rao, Michelle, Rachana, Carol F., and Adrian,

Many times the diagnosis is not obvious and it is essential for a medical provider to be on the ground in the village to evaluate, diagnose, and treat a patient.  Humanity for Children’s services provide this continuity for the community of Rota, Kenya.

By having a clinical officer in the village, villagers are able to be seen and evaluated. This can save them an entire days walk to the nearest hospital and a long wait at the “emergency department.”  This can make the difference between getting the wash done, getting the goat milked, or even leaving the other children alone at home while the mother or father goes into town to the doctor.

By providing this donation, and supporting Norman, you have helped many families in Rota, Kenya find quality medical care and save valuable time that they can put back into providing for their families in this harsh climate.  In this photo you can see Norman with just one of the 50-60 patients he will see each day!

They are truly grateful to have your wonderful support.  Thank you Adrian (11 days!), Renee (3 days!), Nancy (2 days!), Rachana (2 days!), Molly, Lyndal, Casey, Andrew, Patricia, Diane, Lindsey, Jennifer, Madhan, Rao, Michelle and Carol for your support!
