Digging, good Samaritans, “Yes Lord!” and football
After digging away at the trench all morning we were all glad for the break, receiving the dazzling smiles of the children. One of the top students demonstrated his reading and English skills in the classroom then we headed back outside.
Karibu Kenya!
By the end of the day the first blisters had started to develop on all of our hands after swinging the pick axe, pounding the ground with a jimbe or scraping away at the stubborn earth with a long Maasai ‘sword’.
Progress
The crew has been working steadily to install the towers, solar panels and tanks at both locations of the new boreholes – Oiti and Eluai. They are awaiting the arrival of the pumps. As soon as these are installed water will be flowing to nourish families and animals with clean life-giving water!
Water at last!
The second phase of the borehole projects at Eluai and Oiti have begun! The company contracted to install the pump and solar power system arrived last week and have been working hard with the help of the local community members. We expect that 100’s of families will have access to the clean water for the first time by next week.
