A message from the community

We wish to say thank you so much for the great work you have done in our village by drilling a new well and installing a new hand pump. We thank you so much for giving us access to clean and safe drinking and washing water.

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

Residents of Kogendo village in Kisumu county had the options of collecting water from dams and rivers, but that was all that was as a far as access to water is concerned. The villagers did not have the option of collecting clean water as the  sources were either too far from them or too expensive.

Thankfully, Lifewater Canada and Stada Kenya drilled a new well in Kogendo village and installed a new hand pump, thus making clean and safe drinking and washing water easily accessible to everyone in the village.
