Leah Okeyo is a community activist, blogger, author, and World Pulse correspondent. She is co-founder of two women's organizations–Jacolo Rural Women Response to HIV/AIDS, and Positive Action for Change (PACHO)–and is a participant in RV's “Blogging Positively” project. She is a Kenyan citizen and mother of six, who dreams of bringing computer technology and Internet access to her community, and who blogs regularly for a global audience. “Giving voice to the voiceless” is one of her primary goals, and this includes not only women and people living in rural areas, but people like herself who are living with HIV/AIDS.
