About
Mulika Afrika is a non-profit organization that empowers Maasai through Education, Medical Care, Environmental Sustainability and Economic Empowerment.
Mulika Afrika was officially founded in 2020 by Paul Ole Leitura. He was driven by his deep commitment to the Maasai community and had the wish to create sustainable, positive change for his community. In 2021, Mulika Afrika was registered as a nonprofit organization. This solidified our mission to empower the Maasai communities through targeted programs.
Since then, we have successfully completed over 15 projects. These projects aimed to improve the well-being of the Maasai community. They had a special focus on promoting gender equality.

Empowering Women through Livestock

Receiving goats from Mulika Afrika has changed my life. As a widow, I struggled to provide for my children, but now I have a sustainable source of income. My children are healthier, and I feel more hopeful about the future.

Transformative Health Education

The health training provided by Mulika Afrika and The Rain Workers has been eye-opening. I learned about family planning and the importance of reproductive health. Now, I can help educate others in my community, and we are seeing fewer health issues.

Mulika Afrika’s rehabilitation services have given my son a new lease on life. The physical therapy sessions and medical care have improved his mobility and confidence. We are grateful for the support and care we have received
