World Vision Kenya has reached more than 300,000 people affected by drought in November 2017.

Still, there's more work to do. World Vision continues to be concerned that: 

  • More than 420,000 children are malnourished
  • 3.4 million people are in need of emergency food assistance
  • 2.9 million people require health care assistance
  • 3.5 million people need clean water, sanitation and hygiene support
  • More than 170,000 children are not attending school as a result of drought

To respond, World Vision aims to provide 400,000 more people with life-saving and life-changing assistance in the coming months.

Due to the ongoing drought and conflict, World Vision Kenya is requesting an additional US $19 million to reach people who urgently need emergency assistance to access food, clean water, health care, nutrition, child protection, income generating activities, shelter and education.
