Kenyans have so far donated Sh29.9 million towards the medical expenses of protesters who were injured during the mass demonstrations against the Finance Bill, 2024. Meanwhile, Hanifa Farsafi, the rights activist coordinating the fundraiser issued an update on how the Sh29.9 million funds are being utilised. She said medics who have been offering free medical services to injured protesters will also be considered. In a previous post, Hanifa said the donations surpassed the Sh10 million target by far and determining how the balance will be utilised is a collective agenda. Many of those who lost their kin are from poor backgrounds and will need financial aid to bury their dead.
