More than 1,500 vulnerable and needy people in Homa Bay have benefited from food and non-food items donated by businessman Jared Kiasa. Kiasa started the initiative after President Uhuru Kenyatta appealed to well-wishers to support the vulnerable people in the society. Elderly persons and other needy people need assistance so they don’t suffer as the government fights the virus,” Kiasa said. Oyier said their objective is to ensure Homa Bay residents survive during the pandemic. “We still don’t know where Covid-19 will take us but it’s important to reach out to vulnerable persons with any support available to improve their lives,” Oyier said.
