sort through, and priorise potential funding organisations listed in resource section

Step: 
7

Nairobi Eastlands (NESC) has a large bank of potential funding / support organisations listed in the resource section (right hand column). These organisations were selected because they are organisations which have a similar focus to NESC in some way or another. However, it is time to prioritise these according to their potential /liklihood to fund NESC.

Research questions to help are:
i) Does the organsation have a profile in Kenya?
ii) Does their philosophy/focus fit with NESC?
iii) Do they provide actual funding, capital or resources directly?

Collect Information on Health Awareness Campaigns

Step:

Fred and the members of HICA identified several health care issues in their responses to the "We Can Do" project definition tool. Among these issues were Malaria, HIV/AIDS, family planning, and good hygiene/sanitation.

For this task, I would like to begin collecting information on various health awareness campaigns that we can share with the HICA members. Health awareness and education campaigns are one way that HICA can begin realizing better overall health and make an immediate impact in their community.
