Maasai Evangelistic Association will also want to see that none of the Maasai children in Kenya will have to go to bed hungry because of their families have nothing to feed them. More than one million people worldwide are chronically hungry.
This will mean that every 24 hours 40,000 children die of hunger or hunger related diseases. When most people are confronted with this reality, they feel overwhelmed to a point of not doing anything and they quickly conclude that there is no way to help such a big number.
Currently, orphans and rescued girls are placed with Christian families and retained in education by means of child sponsorships. These sponsorships appear to have been provided by a UK Churches associated with MEA U.K trustees.
Rev David Kereto who is MEA Kenya Executive Director explained that despite these sponsorships, the increase in the number of girls seeking refuge is putting considerable strain on already impoverished families and therefore a facility specifically for this purpose is now needed.
Maasailand lies at the south-western tip of the Republic of Kenya and is found at the south part of the vast Rift valley. It borders the Republic of Tanzania to the south, Bomet and Nakuru district to the north.
