Provide Clean Water for 1,000 Students in Kenya
Students line up to trek for water
Students just like the ones here from the Butenje Primary School in Western Kenya must travel over 5km a day. And even then, the water they find is dirty and diseased.
A student collects her day's water
Girls like this spend hours every day fetching water. It's time that would be better spent in school...learning.
Students arrive at the unprotected Spring
The students from this school collect water from an unprotected spring. The water is simply not safe to drink. It causes sickness which leads to many lost days of school.
Giving students water changes lives
Once a well is built, these students will only walk a few meters for clean, safe water. They'll spend more time in class learning the skills essential to help build their community.
