Horror situation in Kenya
ns. According to the Kenyan Government there should be no more refugees... But the truth is different: each week around 700 people are coming to the Rhein-Valley Hospital to get the minimal food supply. Amanda Ammann (former Miss Switzerland), Stephan Holderegger (founder of the RVH), Nicolas Senn and even the Ambassador Georges Martin and his wife are now helping fulfilling the tasks. The Ambassador was moved about what's going on here after he had been introduced by doctor Wanjara. We also helped a new established inofficial refugee camp of 250 families outside of Nakuru. Our medical staff was there for 7 hours to get the most needed medical help to them. The ground is dried out, the hygienic circumstances are frightening. We couldn't find any suitable water supllies nor toilets. Even our help with medications, T-Shirts and necessary cloths are only a drop in the sea of mysery. If there will not be help from the Government and from more privare sponsors in the near future, the work of the Rhein-Valley Hospital is in danger!
