Bonyo's Kenya Mission (formerly CARE KENYA Inc.) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization founded by a concerned group of health care professionals from the Akron, Ohio area.
Bonyo's Kenya Mission is dedicated to improving the lives and healthcare of individuals residing in the rural Nyando District in Western Kenya. Medical and educational services will be provided through the Mama Pilista Bonyo Memorial Health Centre in the lovely village of Masara.
Bonyo's Kenya Mission aims to provide resources for medical care, staff, and HIV/AIDS education and counseling as well as funds to complete and maintain the Health Centre.
In addition, funds raised will assist in providing the children and teachers at the Masara Primary School with the necessary uniforms, books and supplies.
"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." ~ Margaret Mead
These trips occur once or twice per year and are a joint function of Bonyo's Kenya Mission and SHARE Kenya. SHARE Kenya is an Ohio University College of Osteopathic Medicine organization that uses this opportunity to help the underserved and promote international exposure of medical professionals from OU and from other schools, including Ohio Northern School of Pharmacology.
