YOU helped rescue Jennifer from despair

still in denial and believed that someone had bewitched me,” she says.

The clinic staff did not give up on Jennifer but continued to follow up with her, and eventually she accepted her situation and began treatment.

“I did not want anyone, including my two children, friends, or neighbours, to know my status for fear they would stigmatise me and talk ill about me,” said Jennifer.

“But as I continued to attend the support group meetings, I gradually made progress in accepting my situation — and I began to share my story,” said Jennifer with a beaming smile on her face.

Hope and purpose for Jennifer — through your support!

Today, as an African Enterprise community health volunteer with the Soweto Kayole Clinic, Jennifer is able to share her story with other women and encourage them to seek testing and treatment if they suspect they are infected.

“It gives me so much joy to see women, once suicidal after testing HIV positive, now sharing their stories with other women,” said Jennifer.

African Enterprise’s Soweto Kayole Clinic and community health volunteers like Jennifer are a beacon of hope for vulnerable families living in the slums of Nairobi, Kenya.

Even though Jennifer continues to face many challenges, she says she is excited at how God has turned her sad story into an encouragement for other women.

Thank you for all you do to make African Enterprise’s medical clinics around Africa possible. You are saving lives today and saving souls for eternity!
