AMURTEL works with Abha Light Foundation and receives invitations from all over Kenya to conduct mobile clinics. Trainee-graduates work in teams and go out regularly to 10-12 sites a month.

The mobile homeopathic clinics in Africa are a response to the need for inexpensive but effective medical treatment especially in the areas deprived of medical facilities. Homeopathy is nearly unknown in most parts of the African continent. Yet the high costs of conventional (allopathic) medicines gives little choice to the people, most especially the poor, except to leave them to suffer and die from their diseases untreated.

n Eastleigh Nairobi, Abha Light’s clinic sees a constant flow of patients from the surrounding slums of Mathare Valley and Eastleigh. Most of the patients can’t afford to pay for their treatment. While about 75% of the patients are HIV+, the clinic attends all patients freely. Its the policy of the clinic to never turn away a patient for lack of fees.

Disaster Relief
AMURTEL operates as a well-wisher (donor), purchasing food items in bulk locally in Myanmar which are then rationed into family-size bags. These are then distributed by trusted community groups.

Rehabilitation
To help child victims of the cyclone deal with the massive trauma they have suffered, AMURTEL sponsors and/or builds temporary schools and Child-Friendly Spaces implemented by local Myanmar organizations. These Child-Friendly Spaces provide shelter for children 3-6 years old and offer playgroup therapy, trauma healing and supplementary feeding programs.
