A message from the community

Students and teachers at St. John's Masawa Comprehensive School wish to express our deepest gratitude to Lifewater Canada and Stada Kenya for our school well. The well is now providing clean drinking water to everyone in the school and the outside community. We ae so happy to have access to clean water.

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

Students at St. John's Masawa Comprehensive School in Kisumu county would drink and wash from a nearby river. The trip to and from the river kept students from classrooms and contributed to poor performance in school. The river's water is unsafe so it made students sick. 

But not anymore, because Lifewater Canada and Stada Kenya partnered to drill a well for St. John's Masawa Comprehensive School and installed a new hand pump. Every student is now enjoying clean and safe drinking water.
