Giving Update: AIC Kyome Boys Secondary School

"As students, we used to queue at the available water points within the school every evening after games. Water would be given to us with everyone getting 10 liters only for all daily water needs. It was chaos all over since the water is not enough for bathing and washing, it created numerous conflicts amongst students and the," said 16-year-old student Enock.

"Water is now more available to all of us without any form of rationing. We can walk to the water project any time and get access to clean water for drinking and bathing. Life is now more fun in school without the water struggles. We live in harmony as students without conflicts as one of the main sources of conflicts was the struggle for water."

"We can now maintain high standards of cleanliness since water is available. This water project has brought enough water to our school, which has created a strong handwashing culture. Our school has mango trees within the compound, and since the project was implemented, many students wash their mangoes before eating, unlike before. This is helping improve our health and prevention of diseases associated with dirt."
