Peninnah Mutungi
Executive Director
Penninnah is a medical doctor practicing here in St. Louis. She graduated from the University of Nairobi, Medical School.
Her goal is to ensure children spend more time studying, rather than fetching water. Peninnah has been instrumental in coordinating Rehema's efforts to drill a borehole (well) in Mulumini Secondary School located in semi-arid part of Makueni, Kenya.
Check out our "News" section for more details about our borehole (well) project.
Millie Tutlam
Finance Director
Millie is a Certified Public Accountant in the State of Missouri. She has a Bachelor's degree in Accounting from Lindsey Wilson College and a Master of Accounting degree from St. Louis University in Missouri.
She is a firm believer that you have to teach people how to fish, and not just provide them with fish. If you educate children, you educate an entire village.

suresh nellore
Board Member
Nellore joined Rehema in September 2019. He is a physician specializing in infectious diseases here in St. Louis.
His goal is to ensure that intelligent underprivileged children from Kenya get a hand-up to pursue their education beyond middle school. He sees the work that Rehema does as an integral part of breaking the cycle of poverty.
Dr. Nellore is keen to point out that we are not providing hand-outs, and that the work we do has greater impact not just for the scholar, but for his/her entire family. “Poverty is like a hurricane that never leaves”, we must all do our part to ensure that children have access to education.

“Every child dreams to be educated and be something in future. Whom do orphans have, whom do children from poor families have? They have God, you and me. Giving in any small way can change a child’s life. You don’t have to be rich to donate.”
