Jamii Moja
Health Diplomacy
Empowering African communities to thrive
Jamii Moja means “one world, one family” in Swahili, and it’s also a Portland-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit volunteer organization that has been a part of Luca Holistic Medicine's humanitarian outreach. The mission is to assist in the development of educational opportunities and sustainable programs for the Maasai communities of rural Kenya. Some of our current projects include sponsorship for educational expenses for 29 children, further development of a rural medical clinic, help with micro-enterprise for women to become self-sustaining, and continuing to provide a holistic approach toward growth and development.
