[citation needed] In 2001, in response to the devastating HIV/AIDS pandemic, the partners united their efforts to establish one of Africa's largest, most comprehensive, and effective HIV/AIDS control systems.

This commitment to holistic care means that AMPATH responds to the various needs of patients, including addressing issues such as hunger, unemployment, discrimination, and abuse.

The program has also enrolled over 10,000 patients in income security initiatives, including agricultural extension services, micro-finance, and small business ventures.

Moreover, AMPATH conducts prevention and early treatment programs that demonstrate the effectiveness of community-based efforts in significantly reducing the spread of HIV/AIDS.

[citation needed] AMPATH places great importance on local leadership to ensure the sustainability of global health initiatives.

Additionally, AMPATH focuses on empowering patients to achieve income security, with the goal of enabling them to contribute financially to their own healthcare.

AMPATH has secured significant funding, with over $59 million received from prominent organizations such as the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the Gates Foundation.

To address this, the partnership has implemented various initiatives to promote the overall health and well-being of its patients, including food support, agricultural, and nutrition programs.

[citation needed] In addition to food production, the partnership emphasizes sustainability and provides training in modern farming techniques to patients in recovery.

Under this model, clients who receive monthly food prescriptions can conveniently collect their prescribed amount from the nearest AMPATH farm.

Currently, there are over 20,000 children registered in the program, which operates in seven main clinic areas: Eldoret, Burnt Forest, Iten, Kabarnet, Mosoriot, Port Victoria, and Turbo.

They also provide treatment for intestinal worms in children, distribute treated bed nets to prevent malaria, and offer nutritional counseling.

The ultimate goal is to expand the program and provide safe and accessible water to the 2 million individuals residing within the AMPATH catchment area.

Additionally, FPI develops various enterprises, including Valley Orchards, Green World Nursery, Cool Stream Restaurant, and Imani Workshops.

[2] Imani Workshops is a handmade crafts business that reinvests 100% of its income to benefit its employees, all of whom are HIV-positive patients in Western Kenya.

Developed by the Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada, the program's primary objective is to reduce maternal and infant mortality and injuries resulting from pregnancy, childbirth, and unsafe abortions.

[2] Riley Mother and Baby Hospital (RMBHK), conceived by Dr. James A. Lemons of Indiana University School of Medicine, officially opened its doors on April 29, 2009, in Eldoret, Kenya.

RMBHK is dedicated to providing comprehensive services for expectant mothers and their infants, with a strong emphasis on education, training, and research.

The project offers services such as diagnosis and treatment of sexually transmitted infections (STIs), HIV testing, counseling, cervical cancer screening, and gynecology care.

Additionally, AMPATH has embraced modern technology by utilizing Google's open-source mobile operating system, Android, as a data collection tool for its Home-based Counseling and Testing (HCT) program.
