Dear Kenyans and friends of Kenya,

As you may already be aware, our
families/neighbors/fellow Kenyans in
Kenya are going through extremely difficult times due
to violence related to the outcome of the recent
presidential elections. This violence has resulted in
massive loss/displacement of innocent lives and grave
destruction of property.Sadly, the majority of those
affected are innocent women, children and the
physically challenged individuals of specific
communities. The saddest of all these acts of
lawlessness was the burning of displaced families
alive in a church where they had sought refuge in
Kenya's Rift Valley Province. Most of the displaced
families are now taking refuge in Churches, stadiums
and police barracks.
"Diaspora for Peace" is coordinating a humanitarian
relief effort to
help the displaced families meet their daily needs. We
are collecting nonperishable foods (powdered milk,
mashed potatoes, cereal, noodles and other instant
foods, etc), toothpaste, diapers, pull-ups, personal
hygiene stuff, sanitary pads, clothes and etc. The
first shipment is expected to leave by air before Jan.
30th, 2008 for Kenya and the next one will leave
thereafter by ship. We are also collecting monetary
donations to buy more of the highly needed necessities
and to defray
the shipping cost. The approximate cost involved is
U.S. $15,000.
A fundraiser will be held at 4:00 PM on Feb. 2, 2008
at Faith
Community United Methodist Church situated on 5315
Harford Rd.,
Baltimore, MD 21214.
Your generous donations will go along way in helping
to meet the needs of those in dire need.
A gift opens the way for the giver and ushers him into
the presence of the great (Proverbs 18:16).He who
gives to the poor will lack nothing, but he who closes
his eyes to them receives curses (Proverbs 28: 27).
Humanitarian relief checks should be made out to: I.
C. C. Church, 3406 Bel Air, and Rd Baltimore, MD
21213.
