Hi, I am Lekaine!

Consider giving monthly to provide communities in need with consistent and enduring solutions.

My name is Lekaine, a 68-year-old male born and raised in the northern region of Kenya to a
nomadic family. Nomadic pastoral communities that fully depend on livestock keep migrating in search of water and pasture for human and livestock consumption. I spent my childhood herding my family’s livestock and therefore never had a chance to obtain formal education that comes with diversified employable skills. I later got initiated into young adulthood where I was expected to protect the community as well as herd livestock. I married and spend most of my time raising my family.

Due to climate change-induced droughts, our economic situation has significantly changed for theworse. We recently experienced a severe drought that swept away all our livestock
leading to tough economic times. I now rely on very scarce manual jobs in the
community in order to put food on the table.

I am therefore kindlyappealing for support from well-wishers in form of; insurance premiums for the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF), capacity building onclimate-smart agriculture, and livestock restocking. This support will enable my family and
I access improved food security and nutrition and much-needed healthcare, and
hence improve the quality of my life.
