Giving Update: Malimali Community, Shamala Spring

February, 2021

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

Giving Update: Malimali Community, Shamala Spring


"Before the project, the water was open and you could just dip in the fetching container and pull up water. This was not very safe because, most of the time, to support yourself, you stepped in the water and made the water dirty."

"Right now, fetching water from the protected spring is very fast and convenient. This has brought a positive impact to me."

"I am free from diseases such as typhoid which had made strong roots in my body. Since we began having clean and safe water, I used medication for the last time and I have never experienced it again."

"The plans that we had were to ensure that we got safe and clean water so as to prevent waterborne diseases, and this has been fulfilled."

Celestine plays with water at the spring.
