Imela Youth Foundation

Health & HIV/AIDS Awareness

Promoting wellness, preventing infection, and empowering youth and women with life-saving knowledge.

Preventable Illnesses Still Harm the Most Vulnerable

In Kalaki District, lack of access to health information and sanitation leads to preventable diseases. Many youth and single mothers are unaware of how to protect themselves from HIV, how to manage hygiene in poor environments, or how to access health support when needed.

IYF’s health program is about awareness, dignity, and prevention — starting with education, ending with empowerment.
