A message from the community

On behalf of the Nazarene Church and community nursery, we would like to appreciate Lifewater Canada for providing our school with a water tank and handwashing station. May God bless you. -- Administrators


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

Nazarene Church in Kisumu County operates a community nursery for 65 preschoolers. For a water supply, the nursery relied on a tap at a nearby home. Unfortunately, the tap would sometimes run dry -- leaving little boys and girls with no water to drink or to wash themselves with after going to the toilet. This created a very unsafe environment for everyone. Neither nursery administrators nor parents were happy with the situation but they couldn't afford the money to take any action. Thanks to our donors, Lifewater visited the nursery recently and installed a rain harvesting and storage system including a 2,500 tank and hand-washing station. Now the children have safe water for drinking and hygiene even during dry times. Nursery staff told us that due to everyone's convenient access to clean water, caring for the kids has never been more enjoyable.
