Support Penda to Deliver Covid Vaccines in Kenya

Donation protected
Support Penda Health to vaccinate Kenyans against Covid-19...
 
Penda Health Medical Centres have been designated as vaccination centers by the Government of Kenya! Through this partnership, we have already administered over 21,000 doses of the vaccines. Currently, we are vaccinating over 400 patients per day across 7 of our Medical Centres, but to keep up this work, we need your help.  
 
While the cost of the vaccine is fully covered by the Kenyan Government, it costs Penda about $2 per dose administered to fund things like: 

- Extra Staffing: We need to hire new staff at our facilities to administer the vaccines.

- Transport: Transporting vaccine doses from government depots to our medical centers on a daily basis. 

- Training: Administering the vaccine requires specialized training on the most up to date vaccine protocols. 

- Community engagement: To get more patients into our Medical Centres for vaccinations and to address issues of vaccine hesitancy, we are engaging in regular community outreach and education campaigns. 
 
We are passionate about making the Covid vaccine available to all Kenyans, and we are committed to continuing this important work, but we have limited resources! Can you pitch in just $2 to help? 

Even a small donation can make a big difference! 

Some Kenya Covid vaccine FAQs: 

- As of December 2021, ~6%  Kenya's population of 55 million are fully vaccinated, and only 10% have received at least one dose. 

- The Government of Kenya has an ambitious target to vaccinate 26 million people (47%) by the end of 2022. 

- Penda Health is one of the only private primary healthcare providers in Kenya offering the vaccine in our neighborhoods. Recently, nearly 1 of every 50 Nairobians vaccinated against Covid-19 have received their vaccine in one of our Medical Centres.
