Update from Kenya:

Today, our learners served the Kisumu people at the Ober Kamoth County Hospital. They were able to see a maternal delivery with a P4 learner serving as the midwife assist. She even did a crash course in breastfeeding with the new mom. Learners are serving both the local county hospital and the local community clinic.

This campaign will help us fund scholarships, the exceptional learner experience, high-school learners attending the 2024 Emerging Pharmacists Summer Camp and other initiatives.
