Following the prolonged drought that is currently prevailing in many parts of Kenya as a result of unfavourable weather conditions, the country has experienced crop failure and loss of pasture for livestock.

It is now estimated that 3.5 million people, among them children are already experiencing severe food shortage and require emergency food assistance. In the short-term the country is in urgent need of monetary assistance to purchase relief food and other non-food items such as water and sanitation, and to support agriculture and health services in the affected areas.

H.E. Mwai Kibaki, President of the Republic of Kenya has declared the drought a national disaster and has appealed for international intervention to mitigate the effects of the draught.

So in Regards to this all the major Entertainment Companies ( Record labels etc.)and Artists from this region have joined hands with SAVE THE CHILDREN, to create awareness of what is going on.We intentend to raise funds to facilitate the relief efforts already being undertaken by various organisations.
