UPDATES!
We would like to thank all our supporters, well wishers and friends who have responded to our appeal in helping us mitigate our current humanitarian crisis. It has roughly been a month since we put out our call for help. Our crisis is far from over, but with the donations we have received so far, we have managed to save a few lives and in store some hope to those families who have lost almost everything as a result of the post-election violence. We hope our current updates will inspire more people to continue to support our efforts.
