Case in Kenya

A group of Case undergrads will get plenty of sun in the coming months—though not how you may expect. Jeffrey Zabinski, Krishna Surapaneni, Joshua Hollabaugh and Philip Niles are helping to set up an HIV/AIDS testing clinic in Bungoma, Kenya—a rural part of Africa that has been devastated by a skyrocketing increase in HIV infection.

The team’s efforts are part of an Experiential Learning Fellowship, one of several ways Case students can apply coursework in a real-world setting. The team is also working in conjunction with Volunteer Kenya, a nonprofit organization that educates and empowers individuals to fight the global AIDS pandemic.

The students hope to make a positive impact on the public health and quality of life of citizens of Kenya. Check out their blog to see how they are doing.
