Latest Update from the FieldMama Tumaini VaccinationsBy Nyla Rodgers - Founding Director , October 12, 2009 04:04 PM
   During September 19th-25th, the Mama Tumaini Health Clinic took part in a nation wide campaign to vaccinate children between the ages of 1 and 5 for measles. Mama Hope’s partner Wind of Hope in the Arid served the surrounding communities as well as several local Early Childhood Development and Primary schools.
By the end of the campaign, 485 children were vaccinated and 514 more were given vitamin A supplements. Administering the vaccinations were Naiomi Meme, Harriet Gatakaa and Wind of Hope Programme Nurse, Stella Okello. Thank you for your support! We’re so proud that our clinic took part in this!
