If there is anything this past week has taught us, it’s that Kenyans love their country. We will come together when there is an emergency and stand with our brothers and sisters. 24 hours for Kenya, Post PEV initiatives, The 1998 bombing are all testament as to who we are as a people at the core. However the truth is this. We cannot wait till emergencies. We must take the future of our country and our people into our own hands. We must live, breathe and be the difference that leads Kenya to what it can be.
We all know people who are doing this already. People who have decided to do what it takes to solve a problem. We may not be able to do the same but we can all in some way or another support and recognize them for what they are doing. This is where the folks at Spread The Love come in.
Spread The Love’s goal is to get Kenyans to realize the power they hold in changing Kenya. Last Year they refurbished and painted police stations and schools.
