Thomas Kilonzi
Chairman Board
The Medishare Africa (MA) is a Non-Governmental Organization started in January 2013. It is a non – partisan, non-profit making organization funded by partners and well-wishers. It is run by a Board of Trustees, which oversees an executive management team charged with the day-to-day running of the organization activities. Its main objective is to assist the poor and the underprivileged communities in Kenya by giving support on health related initiatives and projects among others. It was founded by Mr. Thomas Kilonzi and Mr. Benjamin Musunza who after having worked together in the NGO world for over seven years and having had firsthand experience of what communities go through in quest for better lives against the challenges they face daily, they decided to come together and use their experience as a resource to transform communities lives. Having seen the kind of challenges mothers face while trying to look for water among other basic needs in the rural areas, it was very clear that it was a such tiresome experience and very difficult task for pregnant mothers. It was on this basis the Medishare Africa was born with the view of sharing resources with the rural communities to transform lives hence the theme: Advancing possibilities transforming lives. Later the founders decided to reach out other like-minded professionals to establish a Board that is mandated to the organization professionally.
