The story

What happened

The first edition of the Community Participation Programme (COMPART) was launched in Kunyami as a direct follow-up to the Valentine's Day health outreach, equipping young volunteers with practical capacity.

The Valentine's Day health outreach in Kunyami was designed to address immediate need. But MedWHOLE has always understood that wholeness is not built in a single day. So the outreach was not the end of the work in Kunyami, it was the beginning of a longer investment.

The programme was created specifically for the young volunteers who served across the various units on February 14th. Rather than simply thanking them and moving on, MedWHOLE invited them into something deeper: a platform to build practical capacity in areas connected to their interests and passions.

The goal is not only to expose them to practical knowledge but to equip them with scalable, marketable skills that can shape their future and position them as active contributors to the development of their own community.

They came as helpers on February 14th. They are now being equipped as leaders. That is the MedWHOLE journey in motion: Engaged, Discipled, Deployed.
