As we honour the past, we renew our promise to serve humanity.

Our emergency medical teams remain on standby 24/7, delivering prompt, professional, and compassionate care whenever communities need us.

Call G+ Emergency Response Services on 1199.

We mourn the loss of our dedicated Aqua Rescue volunteer, Samuel Wanyonyi Wangila, who gave his life in the line of duty.

For over 15 years, he served with courage and compassion, saving lives and mentoring others.

Rest in peace, Samuel. Your legacy lives on.

As IFRC, we mourn alongside @KenyaRedCross the loss of volunteer Samuel Wanyonyi Wangila, who gave his life in the line of duty. For 15 years, Samuel served with courage and compassion, always stepping forward for others.

His legacy of service and bravery will continue to inspire us all. Our thoughts are with his family and the KRCS team during this difficult time.

Samuel’s sacrifice will never be forgotten.
