The Watha Project, under the leadership of local hero Jefferson Guyo Badiva, has built the fifth well for the Watha community in Kenya and has achieved the goal of the “Clean Water for the Watha” project! Since we accomplished the goal of building the fifth well, we are deactivating this project page on GlobalGiving.
This fifth well serves hundreds of Watha and will drastically improve their health, safety, and quality of life. Now, they don’t have to contend with crocodiles when collecting water or risk contracting cholera or typhoid. Additionally, the labor and time saved by women and children who can now collect water more efficiently at the centrally located well cannot be overstated.
We are so proud of Guyo and thankful for your generous support. Guyo writes, “Many thanks to the GRACE Cares family for making this happen.”
