Fund the change
that's overdue.

~1.3 million Kenyan women are estimated to be living with endometriosis. Most wait 7–10 years for a diagnosis. The financial barrier to care is real — and it's solvable. Partner with The 1 in 10 Initiative to directly fund diagnosis, treatment access, and education across Kenya.
