Fighting Jiggers Together — Community Health Drive at Mayanja

Steps Toward Health — Preparing for Jigger Removal

Before treatment begins, proper hygiene is essential. In this snapshot, children participating in the anti-jigger drive at Mayanja are seen soaking their feet in clean water, a crucial first step to ensure safety and effectiveness during jigger removal.

This simple yet important act reflects the care and attention given to each child, emphasizing that prevention and preparation are just as vital as treatment. Through structured guidance and community support, Destiny Impact and Kenya Red Cross Bungoma County help children reclaim their health and comfort, one careful step at a time.

United for Health — Destiny Impact & Kenya Red Cross Team

Behind every successful community health initiative is a dedicated team. This snapshot captures the committed staff and volunteers from Destiny Impact CBO and Kenya Red Cross Bungoma County during the anti-jigger drive at Mayanja.

Their collaboration reflects the power of partnership, combining expertise, resources, and local knowledge to protect vulnerable children and families from harmful infestations. Each team member played a vital role; from awareness and hygiene guidance to hands-on treatment, demonstrating that coordinated effort and compassion are at the heart of sustainable community health interventions.

Clean Spaces, Healthy Lives — Fumigation for a Safer Community

As part of the anti-jigger drive at Mayanja, Destiny Impact CBO, in partnership with Kenya Red Cross Bungoma County, conducted a fumigation activity for all participating households. This step was essential to eliminate jigger breeding grounds and reduce the risk of re-infestation, creating a healthier environment for children and families.

Fumigation complemented the foot-cleaning and treatment efforts, ensuring that prevention extended beyond immediate care. By addressing the broader living environment, the initiative underscored a holistic approach to community health; one that combines treatment, hygiene education, and environmental safety to safeguard well-being.
