Mr. Kamau asked Mama Rosella to put the requests in a proposal and forward it to Ahadi Trust Kenya for vetting and approval.
Kamau was speaking today at Sirori dispensary where the foundation donated pneumonia kits and motorbike ambulances that is going to help community health workers in ferrying the sick especially expectant women off the far flung regions to health facilities.
“We have not only brought pneumonia kits, ambulances but also 10 water tanks and 5,000 sandles that will benefit areas infested by jiggers,” said Kamau.
The Ahadi Trust boss who was accompanied by his director Mr. Joseph Mathai and Lotto Foundation representative Prof. Joan Mwaura added that the support is part of many programmes that the foundation has in partnership with office of Siaya County first lady.
