A Partnership in Health
Care
The people of Kenya know
that dental health is essential to their quality of life. There are 700
dentists for a population of over 32,000,000 people. Most people do not
have access to care.
Thanks to a partnership between the Kikuyu Hospital, the Presbyterian
Church of East Africa, and
supporting churches of the Presbyterian Church (USA), a dental clinic
now serves the people of Kenya. Located on the modern health care
campus of Kikuyu Hospital, the dental clinic offers the latest in
dental care.
The Kikuyu Hospital Dental Clinic will be administered, operated and
maintained by the people of Kenya, but the degree to which it can
succeed depends on the compassion and support of all the friends of the
Kenyan people. To assure successful operation of the facility and to
meet the needs of all those who are waiting to be served, we need
continued support.
The Kikuyu Hospital Dental Clinic is being built on the legacy of care
established by Scottish missionaries in 1908 when they built the first
hospital in Kenya. Those missionaries knew what the partners in this
project know, "...with God everything is possible." When we allow
ourselves to be the channels through which God's love and power can
work, the distance between continents is reduced and the gaps, between
cultures, is minimized.
We welcome your support, your donations and your prayers.
