#ImprovingLives

Giving back to local communities has been a commitment of Davis & Shirtliff since its founding in 1946...

In early 2020, Kasarani Health Center found itself in dire need for water, as its pumping system had broken down. Davis & Shirtliff, through her #improvinglives program donated and installed a Dayliff booster pump, which restored the dispensary’s functions to normalcy.

Health services in Kenya are provided through a network of over 4,700 health facilities countrywide, with the public sector system accounting for about 51 percent of these facilities. The public health system consists of national referral hospitals, provincial general hospitals, district hospitals, health centers, and dispensaries.  Health centers are designed to provide many of the ambulatory health services, mostly adapted to local needs. Kasarani Health center, stands out amongst the many as one that has focused its resources to taking particular care to attend to gender based violence cases in a most sensitive and efficient manner. The center is also the only one of its kind in the highly populated Kasarani area, and as a result, is always a bee hive of activity, full to the brim with patients seeking medical care. In early 2020, the center found itself in dire need for water, as its pumping system had broken down. Davis and Shirtliff, through the CSR program, donated and installed a Dayliff booster pump, which restored the dispensary’s functions to normalcy.  During the handing over ceremony, the center’s Doctor in Charge, Dr. Dennis, gave a heartfelt statement of gratitude to D&S for the donation, and urged the firm to continue forging forward in its service to the community.
