April Gulotti attended the University of Delaware for her undergraduate degree in Health Professions and Related Clinical Sciences. After graduating, she spent a year in Peru working for MEDLIFE, a non-profit organization that provides medicine, education, and development initiatives to impoverished communities in the developing world. Through MEDLIFE, she served as a Public Health Development Project Coordinator. Seeing first-hand how others in the world lived without one of life’s most basic necessities sparked a passion in her. It was this spark that led her to begin her work in Tanzania, implementing a sustainable water filtration program that would provide 28 families and 2 schools with clean water.

April went on to attend Pace University’s Physician Assistant program, graduating in 2019. She currently works for NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital as an Obstetric Physician Assistant.

Following the peak of Covid, April saw a need to lighten her world and others. So she decided to take the first steps towards starting the non-profit organization that she had always imagined. The Maji Movement was formed and aimed to provide families in the developing world with access to clean drinking water.
