Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)

Karucho village in Kenya's Kisumu county did not have access to clean and safe water because they did not have a nearby source of clean water. They would collect water from a nearby river because as the water was easily accessible. Thankfully, Lifewater Canada and Stada Kenya stopped by Karucho village, constructed a new well and installed a new hand pump, so, everyone in the village is happy to have access to clean and safe drinking water.
