Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
When the hand pump stopped working on the only community well in Wangaya in Kisumu County about six months ago, children and adults had to begin drinking water from unsafe sources. They had no other option, despite knowing these sources put them at risk of diarrheal diseases. But through the generous support of our donors, Lifewater and Stada have repaired the broken hand pump. Now there is safe water for everyone.
