On April 30th, Vanderbilt University is hosting a celebration for Kenyan brothers Milton and Fred Ochieng’, medical school graduates who founded a clinic in Lwala, Kenya to honor their parents who died from HIV. The event will reunite local Nashville supporters 2 years after a city-wide benefit at TPAC that helped launch the rural health clinic. Many Nashville supporters will remember the Ochieng’ brothers as the subjects of the local documentary Sons of Lwala and for their selection as ABC World News Persons of the Week. On April 30th, the Ochieng's will present recent footage from the clinic and update supporters on what has taken place in their village since that night 2 years ago when a premiere audience for the documentary raised $230,000.

The event - "Lwala: An Evening of Celebration" - will take place at Langford Auditorium at Vanderbilt University on April 30th. The celebration will feature a multimedia village walk through experience and cultural musical events. Ticket sales will benefit the Lwala Community Alliance, which is now expanding its programs in Kenya to better address the maternal health and HIV needs in Lwala.
