A message from the community

The new well has saved us all from the river water which was our only source of water. The community of Rarieda Koketch is grateful to Lifewater Canada and Stada Kenya for drilling us a new well and installing a new hand pump. May Heavenly Father bless you all.

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

Men, women and children living in Rarieda Koketch in Kisumu county would wash and drink from a river. The villagers could not access clean water because the source was either too far from them or too expensive. 

To ensure the residents can easily access clean and safe drinking and washing water, Lifewater drilled a new well in Rarieda Koketch village and installed a new hand pump. For the first time in years, the Rarieda Koketch villagers are enjoying clean and safe water from the village well.
