Giving Update: Buyangu Community, Mukhola Spring

February, 2021

A year ago, your generous donation helped Buyangu Community in Kenya access clean water – creating a life-changing moment for Rhoda. Thank you!

Giving Update: Buyangu Community, Mukhola Spring


"Before the project, the spring water itself was not safe as a lot of crabs and frogs used to dirty the water. The place was not clean like it is now; everywhere was full of water which could make it difficult in collecting water or accessing the spring."

"There was no pipe fitted to aid in fetching water, and the banana stem used before would rot, rendering the water unsafe for human use. Much time was wasted in collecting water because much care was to be exercised when fetching water."

"We are very appreciative to the donors who helped us ensure our water point is protected. Through protection, we are accessing safe, clean water as our water source is no longer exposed like it was before. More so, we do collect safe, clean water using the shortest time possible."

"For me personally, before construction, I could not drink water from this water source without boiling or sieving it. But, since implementation, I can drink water from our water point at any given time."
