The Samburu Project brings wells to communities which otherwise suffer the health and livelihood consequences of being without water. Our wells enhance the lives of thousands!
The main objective of the project is to provide clean, safe drinking water.
Improved sanitation has been an ancillary benefit of community water availability.
Location
Project Narrative
They used to have to walk behind the hill over 20 km, leaving at 6 am and returning at 9pm. Or behind Matthew's Mountains. Now it is 1-1.5 km.They used to have to walk every day. People with donkeys went every other day. This was a job primarily done by women. Taking water from the well has saved their livestock from dying during droughts. It is easily accessible. Previous water sources took three people to dig a 12 ft hole and was very dangerous as they handed the water up through the whole. The communty lost two people when cattle fell in on them. The holes sometimes gave way and crumbled. Waterborn diseases have been reduced.
