I think someone posted this information here but I cannot tell under which thread. So I will post this info once more
Objective: Emergency Relief for Internally Displaced Kenyans In the wake of ethnic violence in Kenya, the world has witnessed gruesome pictures of human bloodshed in a once peaceful and stable nation. A series of violence, killings and property destruction has occurred in various parts of the county forcing over 300,000 to flee their homes and over 1000 killed. Words cannot express the horror of children being burnt alive and women gang raped to their death in broad daylight across the country. Yet every face you see has a story and a name of a father, a mother, a sister, or a brother, all victims of murderous neighbors and armed militias.
As Kenyans in the Diaspora it is time for us to come together to show support to our country and demand a halt to the killings. We are kindly appealing to all people of goodwill to donate whatever you can to the thousands displaced and homeless Kenyans in various camps in the country. Thousands are in desperate need and you have a chance to help and make a difference in their lives. Though they may never have the privilege to thank you in person, your generosity will forever live in their hearts. Thank you for your prayers for a Peaceful resolution.
