Students, teachers, and parents from Kyunduani Primary School wish to thank Lifewater Canada donors for providing our school with a rainwater harvesting and storage system which has enabled our school to store enough water for the dry season. Thank you for your generosity.

Kyunduani Primary School in Mwingi central constituency, in Kenya's Kitui County, has 58 students. The school’s growth has has been stalled because there is much poverty in the area -- poverty that has prevented administrators from investing in rainwater harvesting and storage to meet the students' daily water needs, says teacher Miriam Murunga.

Recently, thanks to our donors, Lifewater Canada provided a rainwater catchment system which includes a large 10,000-litre storage tank and handwashing station. Now the school can gather and store water during the rainy season for use during the dry season. Miriam is hopeful the school will begin to grow again.
