Empowering Autoimmune Warriors To Live Fully
Thrive Community is dedicated to ensuring that individuals with chronic autoimmune conditions in Kenya can live fulfilling, healthy lives. Our work focuses on three critical areas: fostering awareness in corporate, public, and educational spaces; improving mental health through support initiatives; and reducing the financial burden of treatments by facilitating the sharing of resources.

We host two annual events to build community and visibility: World Lupus Awareness Day Hangout (May 10th) and The Purple Parade (Our annual 7.5KM walk for autoimmune awareness). Each event is a celebration of strength, solidarity, and the power of being seen.

Regional Support Groups
We are a decentralized network. Our warriors connect through regional, peer-led support groups across the country. The Nairobi Chapter hosts Monthly Hangouts at the Bomblast Memorial Park (Nairobi) for learning, games, and the Warrior Marketplace.

Affordable Treatment
Living with chronic illness is costly. We negotiate strategic partnerships with institutions to reduce the cost of care, and from donor funds, we help offset portions of bills for medication, specialist consultations, and therapy, ensuring life-saving support for warriors in need.

Every Warrior Needs a Community
The average cost of a specialized treatment can deplete a family's insurance in a single dose. We believe no warrior should navigate this journey in isolation or have to choose between life-saving medication and survival.

What people say about us
Wendie Gikono - I gave 5 tubes of blood and samples for my tests today at Metropolis Lab (CBD Branch). Their prices were already quite reasonable, and the total came to KES 24,950 but thanks to my Thrive Community Membership, I got a 25% discount and only paid KES 18,713. Anywhere I can save KES 6,000 best believe I am showing up.

Alice Wambs - Coming to the event really helped me understand people living with autoimmune diseases much much more. I learned a lot about Lupus. When I first heard of the event I had to Google because I was naive about the word. I left the event full of knowledge.
