Bringing water to Kituvu, a village in Kenya, Africa
 

$53,000
can change 1,000 lives in the village of Kituvu

The Problem

  • Small spring fed water holes
  • Women carry 5-gallon jugs of water back to their homes for a mile or more
  • Women wait in line to fill their jugs
  • Round trip from house to spring and back can take up to 2 hours
  • Not enough water is available for crops

The Solution

  • Drill bore hole to access abundant clean water
  • Install approximately 2.5 kilometers of water line down mountain with several spigots to access water quickly and efficiently

Our Goal

Drill bore hole and install piping to Kituvu in October 2026

 

“In Kituvu Village, families need reliable access to clean water. Our goal is to fund a borehole that will provide safe water for generations to come. Every donation, large or small, brings us one step closer to clean water, improved health, and new opportunities for the children”

 

“More broadly, clean-water projects in Kenya have repeatedly shown that improved water access reduces the time spent collecting water and can improve health and sanitation outcomes.”
