NGO's
"JIFAHAMU" is a Swahili word meaning "know your status". The JIFAHAMU KENYA FOUNDATION (JKF) is a Kenyan registered not-for-profit, Non-Governmental Organization (NGO) whose mission is to address issues that affect the poorest of the poor, whose plight has been overlooked or carelessly handled by those who were expected to offer help and support. We also focus on health matters affecting people, the biggest one being HIV/AIDS.
The Kenya government and other governments of the world, global peace and health organizations, Civil Society Organisations (CSO) and individuals filled with benevolence have sat and made strategies on how to reduce the spread of the HIV virus. But besides the enormous resources and campaigns, the virus is still spreading, accompanied with personal trauma, shame and stigma; shettering families and leaving behind orphans, mostly very young lives. Seemingly, the policies that have been made in beautiful air-conditioned offices behind computer screens have not been causing any meaningful change on the ground where the affected and the infected live.
