Kenyans for Kenya
The Kenyan media has joined hands with the corporate sector to raise Sh500 million in the next four weeks for drought stricken Kenyans. The initiative dubbed Kenyans for Kenya has brought together Media Owners Association, Safaricom and KCB foundations among other organisations. Kenya Red Cross Society will manage the fund that will be used to purchase food relief to the drought stricken Kenyans. “Unlike many other things, the world has to be shaken by this kind of images before we wake up. I said in January that if we did not prepare and respond early, we were going to be in this situation,” said Kenya Red Cross Secretary General Abbas Gullet. |
