Grace Adhiambo is a 32 year old woman from Mbita town in Kenya. She was so grateful when she received her kit that she believes will help improve her hygiene and protect her from mosquito bites.
Each kit includes a mosquito net to sleep under, water treatment drops to provide clean water during her entire pregnancy, a laboratory test for ongoing evaluations of maternal health, and medications including malaria prophylaxis, de-worming, ferrous sulfate and folic acid. In addition, mothers visit the Med25 clinic each month during their pregnancy to receive maternal education and checkups from clinic professionals.
Grace feels so blessed that she boldly says, “from now on I don’t have any problem.” She is very careful about malaria, and whenever she suspects that she might be sick, she goes to the MED25 clinic immediately.
