Ephantus Njoroge Njambi is 22 years old. At Rhine Valley Hospital, he works in administration, preparing the payment of salaries, insurance, taxes and pensions. He consults with Mama Matata as soon as patients are unable to pay for their treatment.

Switzerland is once again experiencing a cold winter. In the Rhine Valley, temperatures are currently not rising above freezing. At night, the thermometer drops almost into the double-digit minus range. Snowy mountains and black ice on the sidewalks may make us forget that it is very hot in Kenya right now. In Kasambara-Gilgil it is currently 30 degrees in the shade.

On January 2, Stephan Holderegger passed away after a long and serious illness. To commemorate him and his life's work, the Rhine Valley Hospital in Kenya, the association of the same name is organizing a memorial service.
