This award-winning film tells the inspirational story of *Dartmouth alumni*
Milton '04 and Fred '05 Ochieng'
Milton and Fred are two brothers from Kenya whose village helped send them to
Dartmouth. After losing both of their parents to AIDS, they set out to finish
the primary care clinic their father envisioned before getting sick. Working closely
with the Dartmouth community and others, the brothers raised enough money to open
the clinic.
Jennifer Murray '09, former Lwala intern, will pick up where the movie leaves
off and give us an update on the hospital's remarkable success, recent expansion,
and vision for the future.
______________________________
On Saturday, May 7, Fred Ochieng' will be on campus to give his
personal account of the Lwala story at the second annual Wheelock
Conference.
