The community of Kalando Ugwe is so happy to have access to uninterrupted flow of clean water from our new communal well. We wish to thank Stada Kenya and Lifewater Canada for thinking about us and taking care of our water needs. We are deeply grateful for the support. ---Community Leaders
Residents of Kalando Ugwe village in Kisumu county relied on a tapped water in the community. While the tapped water was clean for drinking, it was so unreliable that most days when the tap ran dry, the community members would collect drinking water from unsafe source which is a nearby river. However, our donors enabled us to drill a new well for Kalando Ugwe community and install a new hand pump, so everyone in the community has uninterrupted access to clean and safe drinking water.
