WATER FOR IMPROVED SANITATION


Before the past 6 months life has been very difficult  in my village based in lorambi division kakamega county .The difficulty is not only due to povetry levels that are high ,lack ofjobs due to illetracy, and high levels of disease but also because water is scarse.
  
  We walked for five kilometers to get water in the nearest stream. A lot of time and energy was wasted in collecting water since the source was far awy and the stream was overcrowded with villagers .Students got late to schools,farmers delayed to get their farmers and various businesses were also affected .The wewasafo forum visited our village recently and built a borehole that supplied tap water throughout the village. The villagers are very happy and the levels of sanitation have increased ea great deal .The organization has also offered 4 students with scholarship to the university to reduce illetracy.The changes in the village are overwhelmingly pleasant and we thank God for the organization wewsafo.
