Odhiambo T Oketch with some of the Children we support at KCDN NairobiIn the past 26 months of our existence, KCDN Nairobi, courtesy of Friends of KCDN have been able to give educational support to 1950 Orphans and Vulnerable Children. Friends were able to help us buy books, stationery, uniforms and shoes for these children.
It all started when Kenyans voted in 2007 and the election results were interfered with. The resultant mayhem caught the world by surprise. Hitherto, we had been a darling of the West and most people thought that Kenya was an Island of Peace in a turbulent Area. We were so efficient and swift with our response; we killed each other, raped our own and burned our own property.
KCDN responded to this mayhem. Men were at war and our women and children became vulnerable. We saw it all. Some women went as far as exchanging sex for food and the children were left on their own. And we stepped in to help these children, courtesy of your Friendship with us.
We made an appeal to the world for help and support, and the response was immediate and tremendous. We were given provisions that became handy with the Internally Displaced Persons. And that was amazing.
Now that we have rent issues, it looks so damning for us. It is threatening what we have been doing, and we know, we have Friends out there, people of goodwill who can be of support, help and partnership with us. We also appreciate that many organizations have strict partnership procedures, but we have faith in humanity and the good that such friendship can surmount.
It is because of this that we have reached out to you. This is a problem that when we put our mind and efforts together as a team, we can surmount.
We are determined to be of good service to our Children who are Orphans and some who are Vulnerable. And we know that your little support will make a difference for us. We have documented our profile and it is a 13 page document which we want to share with you.
This is a new beginning for us at KCDN, and your Support, Friendship and Partnership will be very valuable to us.
Peace and blessings to all mankind.
