Health and Sanitation/WASH

In Kenya’s hardest-hit communities, dignity is stolen by disease, hunger, and neglect. OFEAS battles this daily—arming mothers with prenatal care, shielding children from malaria, and tearing down HIV stigma. We deploy mobile clinics to remote villages, deliver life-saving nutrition, and demand healthcare for the disabled. Because no child should die from dirty water. No woman should birth without care. No person is “hopeless.

A Healthy Society Under Siege: OFEAS’ Battle Against HIV, TB & The Silent Epidemics

The dream of a healthy, productive society is crumbling at the edges in Kenya’s most marginalized communities. Here, HIV still stalks families like a shadow, tuberculosis (TB) spreads through cramped homes, and mothers watch helplessly as malaria steals their children’s breath. These are not just diseases—they are systemic crises, woven into the fabric of poverty, poor sanitation, and broken healthcare.

OFEAS confronts this triple threat of disease, deprivation, and discrimination daily. In regions where:

• HIV infection rates remain stubbornly high, fueled by stigma and lack of testing

• TB silently ravages malnourished bodies in poorly ventilated homes

• Simple mosquito bites become death sentences for children without nets

• Disabled children are denied medical care as “hopeless cases”

This is the brutal reality we fight against.

Why Our Health Battle Matters

Every OFEAS intervention tackles the deadly intersection of disease and deprivation:

1. The HIV/TB Timebomb

• HIV weakens immune systems, making TB 20x more lethal

• Mobile clinics provide ARVs and TB meds to remote villages

• We destroy myths that “HIV is witchcraft” through community education

2. Malaria & Malnutrition: A Vicious Cycle

• Hungry children succumb faster to malaria

• Our nutrition programs + mosquito nets cut child deaths by 40%

3. Disability = Death Sentence? Not Anymore

• Medical referrals for disabled children—often denied care as “wasted effort”

• Wheelchairs, surgeries, and therapies to reclaim futures
