Kenyan,
We know you have watching how the
Thursday Carnage ended with about 148 lives lost. We know that you are not sure
how you can help. Well, you can do something, however small, to help those
affected by the #GarissaAttack.
If you can, visit Chiromo Mortuary
and console with the families looking for their children. You can bring with
you some snacks, water and anything else for them.
Two, you can support the Garissa
attack humanitarian response by contributing money to Safaricom Kenya, Airtel
Kenya, Orange Kenya, Mobikash and the KCB Kenya have opened accounts where
money can be donated via MPESA, Airtel Money, Mobikash through Paybill Number
858585, via OrangeMoney through business number 222222 and through KCB A/C No:
858585858585.
You can donate blood as well, as it
is happening at Kencom in Nairobi.
Those in Nairobi, tomorrow from 5 to
9pm there will be a vigil for the 147 lives lost in the Thursday Attack. See more details here
In your different regions, please see
how you can help out in this. Leave a comment or an inbox of how you would like
to help.
But most importantly, this time of
pain and anguish should not make us cower and see the Somali Community, among
us as the enemies. Or that Islam promotes violence. If we do, we are helping
the Al Shabaab propagate the idea of this being a religious war.
We are Kenyans. The blood of Kenyans
was spilled on Thursday in Garissa, in Mpeketoni, in Westgate, in Mandera and
many other terrorist attacks. We have lost too much. If love, however hard it
is to find it, is the last thing left in us, let us share it.
Share the Love.
Eunice Kilonzo.
