Water Project!

Hey Again Everyone,

Here are a couple pictures from the Enkitoria Community Dispensary Water Project i did in July. This project aimed to repair the public tap at the Enkitoria Community Dispensary (Clinic) and establish a new tap at the nearby Mara Shiners Academy (a primary, aka elementary, school). There are before & after pictures of the clinic tap & a couple pictures of some students at Mara Shiners Academy around their new tap.

We had a little difficulty with the builder but eventually all obstacles were overcome and the project is now complete.

The project was done in association with an organization called Appropriate Projects. This organization is part of the larger organization Water Charity. Appropriate Projects pre-funds projects for Peace Corps Volunteers. This means that before the money has been raised (the maximum monetary limit for all projects is 555$) Appropriate Projects fronts the Peace Corps Volunteer funding & then collects the money via private donations during and after the project. Currently, over half of the money for this project has been raised (333$)! I & the community appreciate the donations of all who have given. Below is the website for the project if anyone is interested in reading a more detailed description of the project and/or the community. It is also possible to donate from this web address via PayPal.
