My name is Sembere, a 78 years old man born and raised In the northern parts of Kenya to a nomadic family which moved in search of water and pasture for their animals . I spent my childhood herding and didnt get a chance to obtain formal education. I later got initiated into young adulthood where i was expected to protect the community as well herd cattle.
I later married and had a great family. We are a community that entirely depends on livestock for a living but due to climate change things have changed. The recent prolonged drought wiped out all my livestock and I now have to depend on scarce manual jobs in order to earn something small to sustain me and my family. I am also diagnosed of joint illness that requires close medical attention.
I am kindly appealing for your support so that i can be able to access healtcare and restock livestock and build a brighter future for my family.
