Nairobi, Kenya – Comedian and philanthropist Eric Omondi has announced plans to embark on a daring journey on foot from Nairobi to Mombasa, arriving in the coastal city on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2026.
Dubbed the “Walk of Love”, the initiative aims to raise funds for the construction of the Sisi Kwa Sisi Help and Rescue Centre, a facility designed to provide critical support services to vulnerable Kenyans.
The Journey
Omondi will begin his trek at Nyayo National Stadium on February 10, 2026, and conclude at Mama Ngina Waterfront Park in Mombasa on February 14, 2026. Covering a distance of 486 kilometres in just four days, the comedian will endure harsh weather conditions to complete the symbolic walk.
“On February 10, 2026, I will be walking from Nairobi’s Nyayo Stadium to Mama Ngina (Waterfront Park). I will be covering a distance of 486 kilometres. And remember this is a walk of love because we are doing this during Valentine’s,” Omondi explained in a video posted on his social media platforms on Monday, February 2, 2026.
The Sisi Kwa Sisi Help and Rescue Centre
Proceeds from the walk will go towards building the Sisi Kwa Sisi Help and Rescue Centre, which Omondi envisions as a cornerstone of his philanthropic legacy. The facility will include:
- A warehouse for donations.
- Two ambulances for emergency response.
- A clinic to provide medical care.
- A free secondary school to support education for disadvantaged children.
Omondi emphasized that the centre will serve as a hub where Kenyans can find help in times of need.
“I am walking to raise funds to build the SISI KWA SISI HELP AND RESCUE CENTRE. The Rescue Centre will house a warehouse, two ambulances, a clinic, and a free secondary school. You can walk with me by sending whatever you can,” he appealed.
A Growing Legacy of Philanthropy
Omondi revealed that his team has already handled 208 cases in two years, with many more pending, underscoring the urgent need for a permanent facility. He noted that numerous individuals have expressed interest in donating items, which will be stored at the centre’s warehouse once completed.
“The Sisi Kwa Sisi Help and Rescue Centre will be a place where Kenyans will find help. So far, we have handled 208 cases in two years, and there are more cases pending, with more Kenyans needing help or rescuing,” Omondi added.
Conclusion
Eric Omondi’s Walk of Love is more than a symbolic Valentine’s gesture it is a bold act of service aimed at transforming lives. By walking nearly 500 kilometres, the comedian hopes to inspire Kenyans to contribute to a cause that will provide lasting support to communities in need.
