WMI has provided 345 scholars in 42 countries with scholarships,
professional development and skill building. Here’s how:
WMI provides financial and social support to undergraduate students obtaining degrees in community-oriented fields, and encourages them to be the agents of change in their own communities, nations and the world.
Although our Scholars program stands at the forefront of our mission, our special interest projects play an integral role in WMI’s vision for impact. Our legacy programs include community projects in Haiti and a global literacy program.
What's Happening at WMI?
This past year Eunice volunteered 787 hours! Eunice Kontomo Tungmene is a WMI Student Scholar of nursing and midwifery from Ghana. Eunice’s dream of becoming a nurse may have seemed out of reach, but as a prior teachers states, “She is a lady who does not allow obstacles to stop her from reaching her goals. Rather, she uses them as a stepping stone.”
Eunice has certainly exhibited an inspiring level of dedication to her studies, her profession and to her commitment to serve the most vulnerable. Over the year Eunice has performed immunization outreach activities and handed out mosquito nets to families in Nsueam-Kyekyewere community, collected donations for patients in the children’s ward, and provided health screenings, immunization and care for children at a children’s home. Eunice has worked at three hospitals, primarily in maternity wards, including the Sawla Polyclinic, which is located in a remote part of Northern Ghana where she often must run double shifts in order to provide care to all the patients.
Continue the good work, Eunice God bless your efforts
Thanks everyone

She is also head of guidance counseling, runs the Life Skills Club, and was nominated by co-workers to attend a Sexual Gender-Based Violence training with the UN High Commission for Refugees.

There are approximately 219 million cases of malaria worldwide each year and 93% of malaria-related deaths are in Sub-Saharan Africa. Today, on World Malaria Day, we celebrate the diverse volunteer work WMI Scholars are performing in Sub-Saharan Africa to combat malaria.
Carrie Chinyaw Tsuma, studying to be a nurse in Kenya, performed a malaria screening at local health center and handed out mosquito nets in a primary school. Origene Twibanire, a scholar of clinical medicine from Rwanda, spent his time teaching children in a village about the disease and ways to prevent it, and offered free consultations at the local health center. Adugnaw Abebe of Ethiopia, a scholar of clinical medicine, worked in a rural health placement diagnosing and treating malaria in local clients. Diane Iradukinda, a clinical medicine student from Rwanda, worked to cut brush and canalise stagnant waters in rural areas of the Kinigi Sector, to reduce mosquito reproduction.
These WMI Scholars, and many more, are working hard to prevent and effectively treat malaria in their home regions. Celebrate these scholars today, and every day!
The great work that WMI is doing is something that will never be forgotten, They have shown an example and hope to be part of this legacy. A big thank you to wells mountain initiative
Amazing! I am looking forward to do the same here in Nigeria. Big thanks to WMI for their transformative strategy fo developing countries.
God should continue using WMI to bring total change to most African developing countries ! The org has done much ,and is still doing much in all developing countries .My prayer remains the same that one day I should also be part of the team whilst in my own country Malawi ! To represent WMI in my country will be a great achievement in my life ! If 4 or 5 people volunteer together under WMI Malawi will not be the same ,I always like volunteering for the betterment of my people & my country !
I really want to thank Wells mountain initiative on a special note for your strong love and concern for africans, i love you all and hope to be part of you soon!
So proud of all our WMI Scholars who are so busy giving back to their communities. Keep caring!

Sierra Leone is not an exception here. In the history of our country, our land had been know as the white man grave because of the massive death cause by mosquitoes to our colonial masters. We embrace this campaign as a continent with the help of WMI fellows. Let us keep pushing and make our continent a better place.
