MRA began working in Kenya in 2002 to address the HIV/AIDS crisis in severely affected rural areas. Initially, the focus was on providing medical equipment and technical support through the Medical Supplies and Equipment Relief (MS+ER) program. Based in New York, MRA established partnerships with U.S. and Kenyan hospitals, corporations, and volunteers to deliver essential medical supplies to Kenya.
Realizing that many people lacked awareness of their HIV status due to cultural and economic barriers, MRA launched the Community Health Outreach program. This program works with local healthcare providers to enhance voluntary HIV testing and counseling, organize health fairs, and operate mobile clinics and medical missions.
In 2006, MRA expanded its efforts with our signature program, Goat Hope a microenterprise aimed at addressing the economic and nutritional needs of people living with HIV/AIDS.
