Couple from Kenya Devote Their Careersto Community HealthOur very own Gladwell Mbochi and her husband Peter Waweru are featured in an article published in the Fall Semester 2011 edition of Durham Tech’s publication, “Choices for Success”.

Gladwell Mbochi and her husband Peter Waweru met at a teachers’ training college in Kenya. One year after graduation, they married and planned to reside permanently in Kenya. They both became teachers in Central Province and volunteered as HIV/AIDS community educators. “HIV control continues to be a major concern in Kenya,” Mbochi said.

Wanting a brighter future for their two young boys, the couple moved to the United States in 2002 through a government immigration program.
