A fire partially destroyed yesterday the God Our Father Center For Needy Children, one of the largest hosting organizations of children of Watamu area, Mound, also supported by many Italians.
Fortunately there were no harm to children or staff, but the damage is extensive.
The fire seems to have developed due to an external short circuit and having reduced ash good women of the wing structure, fifty beds to 135. The fire spread so fast because of mattresses, however brand new ( just provided by the Time4LIfe).
Are burned in the fire, in addition to the beds, all the little girls clothes, who have already lost their few worldly possessions. "Now we need really everything - explains the representative on site Monica Massafra - even the store is burned and for many small guest on God Our Father's house. Most of the flames I can still hear their desperate cries." Great response of Watamu community, many residents have flocked and are already working to collect basic necessities. Even those who are not in Kenya can help: through the current account of the GOF (account shillings 1103252410 Swift Code KCBLKENX - Statement in Euro 1,110,757,092) or relying association Nonprofit Time4Life which is already en route to provide assistance and to channel the aid.
