A message from the community

We write to appreciate Lifewater Canada for the provision of a tank to store water for drinking and a permanent facility for handwashing for our students. The Alendu Primary School is grateful for your continued support. -- School Administrators

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

Alendu Primary School in Kisumu County has 704 students who had to bring their own water to class each day because there was no source near the school. Many students would walk to the nearest river, which put them at risk of contracting cholera or other waterborne diseases. Thanks to our donors, Lifewater has installed a rain harvesting and storage system -- including a 2,500-litre tank -- so the school can provide water to the students even during dry periods. The system includes a hand-washing station so grateful boys and girls are not only quenching their thirst but also practicing much-improved hygiene.
