A GoFundMe fundraiser set up to support a Kenyan family based in Waterloo, Iowa, who lost their three children in a tragic road crash in Kenya has raised about Sh8.6 million ($66,000), weeks after the devastating incident.

The fundraiser was launched to help the family with funeral arrangements and other costs following the January 4 accident that claimed the lives of siblings Emmanuel DeLeon, 13, Kairu Winkelpleck, 6, and Njeri DeLeon, 16.
