Lupus Awareness & Support Initiative

Overview:

Inspired by Makena’s own battle with Lupus, this program aims to raise national awareness about autoimmune diseases — conditions often misunderstood and underdiagnosed. We engage with schools, media, and medical professionals to promote education, empathy, and early detection.

What We’ve Achieved:

  • Partnered with health advocates to feature Lupus stories in Nation Media and Tuko.co.ke.
  • Held initial sensitization sessions for youth and women’s groups.
  • Built an online platform to share survivor stories and resources.

Current Gap:

  • Funding for public awareness materials and mobile sensitization clinics.
  • Medical professionals willing to volunteer time for free community screenings.
  • Technology partners for online health education modules.
