Sewa Canada International Aid Inc serves the world in poverty alleviation through ongoing projects for Disaster Relief, Social Development, Health, Education etc. As a registered Canadian charity, the focus is on selfless humanitarian efforts by providing service to all since 1991.
Sub-Saharan Africa is experiencing one of its gravest food crises in decades. Millions are suffering from this food crisis and require urgent humanitarian assistance. Kenya is among these countries, with approximately 4 Million people facing hunger and starvation. Due to the failure of four consecutive rainy seasons, severe drought has led to millions of people in the country facing hunger and thirst. This has been compounded by high inflation, conflicts and displacement that are putting people's lives across the country at serious risk.
The hunger crisis in Kenya has led to school dropouts, conflict for resources and higher rates of child marriages. Though DW, CNN, Reuters, CBC etc. have reported on this crisis, it remains low-key mainly, unknown and overshadowed by other events.
Sewa Canada International Aid Inc., is collaborating with Sewa Kenya to provide food relief and wipe away hunger for as many people we can with our resources at hand.

Sewa Kenya, our partner on the ground in Kenya have so far served 6000 families in three counties (Kilifi, Machakos & Mamba Village) of a total of 29, in Kenya. Our local volunteers are distributing food packages and water, reaching 15 villages and 15 schools in these counties. Each family receives a food kit weighing 20 Kilograms. However, more needs to be done urgently.
It costs US$ 20 to provide 20 kilograms of food to a hunger-stricken family in Kenya.
