Bringing cardiac surgery, eye care, dentistry, and food relief to underserved communities across Kenya since 2013.

Medicine where it’s needed most
Medical and Educational Aid to Kenya (MEAK) organizes and funds medical missions for underserved communities in pediatric cardiac surgery, thoracic surgery, ophthalmology, dentistry, and orthopedics. By partnering with local hospitals and medical professionals, MEAK makes a lasting impact on patients and local healthcare as a whole.
In 2019, recognizing the dire economic situation caused by drought and Covid, MEAK began emergency food missions in Northern Kenya — distributing food across Laikipia and Samburu where teams are alone in providing food relief to those in desperate need.
March to the Top is proud to partner with MEAK by sponsoring both food and medical missions since 2013.

Every mission represents real lives changed — sight restored, hearts repaired, hunger relieved. Here is the record of missions March to the Top has been proud to fund.
Why It Matters
Healthcare should not be a privilege of location or wealth
In Kenya, rural communities face great disadvantages navigating a healthcare system that favors the wealthy. Heart disease and blindness are all too common, affecting people regardless of location or income. Despite this, treatment is often only accessible to those in urban areas with financial means — resulting in thousands going without care for years on end.
Location and income continue to be barriers for Kenyans struggling to get the treatment they deserve. MEAK and March to the Top are working to break down those barriers, one medical mission at a time.
