A message from the community

We, the Matulani Primary School and surrounding community, wish to share our gratitude to Lifewater Canada donors for providing us with the water tank and hand-washing station. We appreciate your love and support.

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

Matulani Primary School in the Nuu region, Mwingi central in Kenya's Kitui County, has 310 students. The school would ask parents to bring water to school when it was deemed necessary. For a community that has barely had enough water since time immemorial, practices such as regular hydration and handwashing were not deemed important.

Lifewater Canada donors furnished the school with a rainwater catchment system which includes a large 10,000-litre storage tank and handwashing station so students and staff can harvest enough water for drinking and handwashing during rainy and dry seasons.

Joyce Mwende, a student at the school, says they are learning the importance of handwashing and drinking enough water. It makes them feel good about themselves when they know they are clean -- a feeling that was new to them at first, she adds.
