Water Matters

The latest on our work and those supporting it



Sanitation training at Nabongo


Wednesday, March 10th, 2010by Peter

Our team in Kakamega was out recently with the students at the Nabongo Primary School preparing them for their upcoming well project. Before a well is constructed, our partners spend time training the community or school in proper sanitation and hygiene. Teaching why dirty water makes one sick is an important part of the process.
