Sudden death of Maurine Awino

Maurine Awino was a teacher at Welicar Educational Centre in Dandora Slum, Nairobi, Kenya.  Maurine was 31 years old and was 8 months pregnant with a baby boy.  She was also a mum to Charles, 12 years old and Brandon, 7 years old.  On Saturday 9th November 2019 Maurine was admitted to Kenyatta National Hospital with eclampsia.  Sadly, in the early hours of Wednesday 13th November 2019, Maurine passed away and her baby boy was stillborn.  Maurine's body is currently being held in the mortuary at Kenyatta National Hospital and will not be released for her funeral until her family have paid the hospital and mortuary fees.

This is an impossible situation for her family who have no money, with the mortuary fees rising daily while her body is being held.

We at Friends of Welicar www.facebook.com/friendsofwelicar  are crowdfunding to raise the funds to assist with hospital and mortuary fees, to ease the burden on Maurine's family. 

Thank You.
