Taking to his Instagram account on the night of Thursday, October 10, 2024, Omondi updated his fans on the progress of the fundraising drive disclosing that he has been able to raise a huge sum of money under his team Sisi Kwa Sisi’s fundraising platform.
He went on to say that he had sent the boy back to school, settled fees arrears and paid for his entire high school fees using the funds.
Additionally, the philanthropist directed his fans to channel their contribution to the boy’s father’s mobile number since his mum’s mobile money account can not accept more funds.
He further revealed his plans to change their lives by buying them a piece of land and starting a business for them.
“Team sisi kwa sisi, nyinyi ni wale watu!!! Tumefika 1 million simu ya mama imejaa mtoto nimempeleka mpaka shule Naivasha Kimuri High tukalipa 4 years!!!” Omondi updated his fans.
“Tuendelee kutumia baba yake on 0790420315 (NAME: GEORGE JULIUS). Lets change their lives kabisa. Nataka anunue land ajenge na afungue biashara,”
Hours after Omondi managed to link up with the boy and saw the sorrowful state of the boy’s family, he initiated a fundraiser through his popular fundraising platform.
The vocal philanthropist vowed to take the boy back to school and help improve the living standards of the family.
Omondi went on to narrate that he had found out that the family of the boy was living like squatters after they fell victim to the demolitions that were witnessed in Nairobi between April 2024, and June 2024, as a result of floods that had been caused by heavy downpours.
The comedian who has been for the longest time now helping the less fortunate in society through his Sisi Kwa Sisi initiative, urged his followers to channel their contributions through the young boy’s mother’s contact.
He revealed that the boy’s father used to operate a butchery within Chokaa, which was too, not spared during the demolition period.
The boy went viral after being captured in a TikTok video being questioned on why he was not in school.
The boy who revealed that he was in Form One, said he had gone to pray for God to open ways so that he would go back to school.
