After failing to make it to the celebrity basketball funds drive organised by Entertainment With Fun For Charity (EFC) over the weekend, where he was expected to make a special appearance, Nairobi Senator Mike Sonko has pledged to top up the Sh120,000 in donations that the tournament raised.
The Saturday event that was attended by the who's who in the entertainment industry is one in a series of events that local entertainers have lined-up to help raise funds for children's homes.
Yesterday, Sonko who had excused himself following another appointment says he will double the amount of the donations, which also include new TV sets, shoes, clothes and sanitary towels, before they are handed over to the two children's homes to which the tournament had been dedicated.
