LWALA- Living With A Life-long Ambition is a youth based organization that employs innovative ways to involve youth in fundraising efforts for worthy causes. Our goal is to connect young people with tangible solutions for epic problems by enabling them to use their talent and passion to contribute to global efforts. The youth-based organization was inspired by the story of Vanderbilt Medical students and Lwala natives Milton and Frederick O'Chieng, whom co-Founder Danielle Snyder met while attending Vanderbilt. In November '07 L.W.A.L.A partnered with the LCA, a 501c3 and an alliance of communities whose mission is to build the fundamental human capacity of the people of western Kenya to advance their own comprehensive well being, including physical health, educational opportunity, economic freedom, cultural vitality and spiritual growth. L.W.A.L.A supports the work of the LCA which equips community leaders in Lwala village and the surrounding area to provide community- based health care, tuition assistance and micro-loans.   L.W.A.L.A stands behind the LCAs mission: BUILDING CAPACITY BUILDING HOPE.
