Helping displaced & HIV+ people in Kenya

kibera distribution #2 031

We wanted to share more about what African Leadership and Mocha Club have done to address the needs created by the violence of the election in Kenya. Some of these relief items were distributed to displaced people through our network of churches in Kenya, and some were distributed to HIV+ people we work with in Kibera (in Nairobi), the biggest slum in East Africa.

The following funds provided for about 7000 family members! THANK YOU for doing your part to provide for the Kenyan people!
