Meet Our Bridges: SOTENI International

Meet Our Bridges is ClassACT HR73’s way to introduce our classmates and extended community to our Bridge Partners by letting them create awareness of their mission as well as solicit volunteer help and/or donations.

On September 24th, join us as we introduce SOTENI International, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization registered in the U.S. and Kenya, with more than 20 years of experience working alongside rural communities in Kenya. Founded in 2003 to improve access to healthcare and support for people living with HIV/AIDS and their families, SOTENI today supports more than 3,000 people affected by HIV/AIDS and their households.

SOTENI Board Chair Vic Wulson HR85 and Operations Manager Dr. Pooja Rachewad will share SOTENI’s journey through the people and communities at the heart of its work. A short video featuring the voices and personal stories of SOTENI beneficiaries will offer a firsthand look at the impact of SOTENI’s programs and the role that local leadership, community partnerships, and long-term commitment play in creating lasting change. The presentation will conclude with SOTENI’s “Adopt a Support Group” Campaign, an opportunity to help sustain and strengthen this work.
