As a major indicator of such capacity building, the SOTENI people on the ground in Kenya either managed or obtained 10 project grants from a variety of funders during this period. We began the SOTENI-PUR Clean Water Project, which enables in-home purification of drinking water. Funded by one of our partners, the Procter & Gamble Fund of the Greater Cincinnati Foundation, the project will distribute 700,800 PUR-brand purification sachets to 960 HIV/AIDS-affected households, plus other community members, in three SOTENI Villages of Hope [SVHs] over two years. By the end of the first year (April 2011), 320,000 sachets had been distributed. SI also strengthened support for the Dispensary at SVH-Mbakalo, which serves an average of 200 patients a month and provides essential medical services, including deliveries of newborns, to an under served area near the biggest rural slum in Western Province. SI paid for the construction of an interim facility to house the dispensary on community-donated land after the lease expired on nearby space. 45052 70000 SOTENI AIDS Barefoot Doctors [ABD] : With SI's continued support, the AIDS Barefoot Doctors Program expanded to a third SVH, Ugenya. ABD are SOTENI-trained community health workers who provide home-based care and support to people living with HIV/AIDS [PLWHA]. Financed through a variety of grants, the ABD also have provided health-related services and education to the wider community in three SVHs. Since 2006, the ABD have made more than 5,000 home visits to people living with HIV/AIDS and have reached thousands more through public forums and other education sessions. In addition to providing home visits and education sessions, the ABDs are distributing water-purification sachets to PLWHA and others, and are educating the recipients in their use (see 4a). They also are educating and helping 50 PLWHA to establish kitchen gardens for improved nutrition and income generation. As of the end of this period, 15 ABD and 3 ABD Supervisors were deployed. 24074 27288 Sponsorship: SI continues its Sponsorship Program, now supporting 40 orphans and other vulnerable children in their quest for education. The support typically includes tuition, fees, uniforms, clothing, health care, food and psychosocial support. Students are matched up with sponsors from outside of Kenya whose annual sponsorship fees help to cover these expenses. The program promotes cultural interchanges, with sponsors receiving letters, updates, and photos from SOTENI and the students. 24701 21788 147539 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false true false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false false 1 0 false 1 true false false false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false false X 12 12 true false false false false false false true true false false false false true true true false false false false false false OH X X X Randie Marsh 5139612100 2366 Kemper Lane Cincinnati OH 45206 Victoria Wells Wulsin 10.00 X X 0 0 0 Tim Deasy 1.00 X 0 0 0 Susan Anthony 1.00 X 0 0 0 Steve Wolf 1.00 X 0 0 0 Rokhaya Seye 1.00 X 0 0 0 Randie Marsh 40.00 X X X 35020 0 0 Neil Goldstein 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lynn Satherlie Deasy 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lumana Pashi 1.00 X 0 0 0 Lawson Wulsin 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jerry Bedford 1.00 X 0 0 0 Debra Patek 1.00 X 0 0 0 Daniel Odipo 1.00 X 0 0 0 35020 0 false false false 0 8979 225900 234879 0 396 396 0 0 0 0 9701 8979 7455 2246 0 1171 464 707 707 0 238228 2246 1103 0 0 0 0 35020 26863 6479 1678 0 0 0 0 2921 2115 674 132 0 0 500 500 0 0 0 6400 6400 0 800 32 542 226 0 0 1200 1200 14909 14268 597 44 0 0 0 0 272 272 4667 3250 1417 SOTENI Kenya 99264 99264 Postage and Shipping 1077 45 184 848 Online/Email Fees 1171 41 90 1040 Fundraising expense 985 924 61 Bank fees 801 498 215 88 679 239 321 119 170666 147539 12491 10636 11895 81012 1865 1831 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1984 1838 418 146 3362 3758 0 0 0 0 17540 86747 268 1913 268 1913 X 17272 84834 17272 84834 17540 86747 67562 X false false false false false X 72494 189233 166843 174799 234879 838248 0 0 72494 189233 166843 174799 234879 838248 136091 702157 293 4640 1725 2709 396 9763 -4410 1294 -51 2953 -214 0 847797 0.82820 0.77020 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 1984 1838 146 146 Payroll Liabilities 1913 1913 false A Cupcake Affair With A Kenyan Flair 18680 8979 9701 650 1755 350 4700 18680 8979 9701 650 1755 350 4700 7455 2246 Form 990, Part VI, Line 19 Form 990, Part VI, Line 19: Other Organization Documents Publicly Available No documents available to the public.

We arrange speaking engagements to promote its work, recruit volunteers, and generate income. SOTENI also works to mobilize others to fight AIDS. Through multi-faceted outreach, SOTENI educates students and professionals, raises awareness, instigates local activities, and networks with other projects around the world. This interdependence complements other SOTENI activities with universities, colleges, and high schools to send volunteers from developed countries to assist the local teams in Kenya.
