Through the generous contributions of individual and corporate organizations, many needy children have benefited from treatment that they would otherwise not have been able to afford. Last year’s Nairobi and Mombasa Golf Tournaments helped raise Kshs. 7.4 million, which went towards the treatment of many needy children who received free treatment at the hospital. Our mission is to provide the best available healthcare services to needy and disadvantaged children in Kenya and the East Africa region through the integration of care, research, education and technology.
The money raised from this year’s annual charity golf tournament will be used to provide care to children with neurodevelopmental conditions most of which are congenital and require long term care.
