Kenyan children are facing unprecedented budget cuts that threaten their well being as successive decisions expose the country's vulnerable.
From serious budget reduction in the education sector to suspension of critical health programmes for school going children and an uncertain funding in higher education, the children are exposed.
And the latest blow, the government's recent decision to defund and dissolve the Children Welfare Society of Kenya (CWSK) casts a dark shadow over the future of more than 700,000 vulnerable children.
Once a beacon of hope and protection, the Society, which has safeguarded children's rights and welfare for 70 years now, faces the grim reality of its collapse.
