Water harvesting to reduce water crisis

Having grown up in a community where water supply in school was rare. I am very humbled to testify that we the pupils at Mwigala Primary school are very lucky to have water curtesy of an NGO based in Kakamega town. Western water and sanitation forum thought their water sanitation and hygiene department has made our school stand out as one of the few with adequate water supply. The organization visited our school after consultation and constructed a concrete tank from which  rain water is harvested and stored.The tank also help us store water piped to the school during dry seasons. Thanks to the organization we can now enjoy enough water and the school has also decided to introduce hand washing practice due to availability of ready use water in the tank. This way many of the pupils are now enjoying their studies without interruptions of sickness. We therefore request other organization to follow this examples of helping the public schools
