| Jumuiya Women Fund (JWF) is a women’s rights fund and the first of its kind in Kenya, committed to women’s empowerment and self-reliant development. JWF's groundbreaking work in local grant-making empowers local women’s organizations and engage the wider community. The vision of JWF is to have a world where all women live in peace, with dignity and justice and where there is equality and respect for women’s rights. Our mission is to mobilize financial, human and material resources to support initiatives for transformation led by Kenyan women, women’s rights organizations and the Kenyan women’s movements. JWF’s grant-making ensures resources reach the hundreds of Kenyan women’s organizations that are working in diverse ways to improve the lives of women and Kenyan society at large. Our grant-making is innovative, flexible and creative. Through our grants we support both established and small, locally based women’s organizations. We also provide specialized funding to facilitate learning and networking opportunities and to celebrate the contributions and achievements of many un-sung Kenyan heroines. Grants can be given to support and strengthen of organizations through strategic planning, governance systems and fundraising and communication strategies WHY INTERESTED IN TUBERCLOSIS We believe that the fight against TB must be EVERYBODY’s business: from the ministry of health to the smallest community-based organization; from the mega corporation to the smallest shop in the village; from the renowned academic to the small child in nursery school who is the future otential WHAT WE ARE DOING FOR TB CONTROL First of all, we subscribe to TB's mission of saving lives and improving the health of the world’s poorest and most vulnerable people We understand that the Kenyan health landscape has seen an increase in the number of players including non-State actors involved in the advancement and promotion of public health using their own resources to protect and promote public health |
