Safe Water for Families in Rural Ghana and Kenya

Dear Donors,

This is a quarterly progress report on our operations in Kenya. This year, we have focused on building internal capacity to be ready to scale to meet our increasing donor commitments leading to an internal restructuring of our Country team.

We are pleased to provide an update on the appointment of Community Health Volunteers in Kenya as part of our restructuring efforts, taking care of advocacy on our WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) training initiative. 

Introducing Joyce, our dedicated Community Health Volunteer whose role also extends to a fulltime Community Manager. Joyce plays a pivotal role in our project, serving as the first point of contact for Caretakers and Community Leaders. She fosters strong relationships with the villages, enhancing our situational awareness and enabling us to respond promptly to any issues, ultimately preventing larger problems from arising.

In addition to her key responsibilities as a Community Manager, Joyce also oversees the coordination of local handymen, known as "fundis," who handle minor repairs. With her expertise and guidance, we can maintain and improve the functionality of our water systems, resulting in enhanced uptime and faster response times.

Furthermore, Joyce has undergone comprehensive training on Issues in mWater, a powerful tool that allows us to effectively monitor and assess water-related challenges. This knowledge empowers us to provide more efficient support, ensuring the sustained availability of clean water for all.

Together with our partners and the dedicated team members like Joyce, we remain committed to creating a brighter, healthier future for the people of Kenya. We invite you to join us on this remarkable journey and help us make a lasting impact.

Thank you for your continued support and belief in our mission.

Forever Grateful,
Muneeza Aftab
Advocacy & Communications Officer
