About
“Maji ni uhai,” our Swahili proverb says: water is life. It is impossible to describe just how important clean water is to places like our village, Kipkaren River.
In 2010, when Living Room began construction of Kimbilio Hospice, we dug a deep well on our land and placed a solar-powered pump. We were blessed with an abundance of water and 12 hours of sunlight every day! This gave us access to drinkable water and has served our patients and staff as well as enabled us to place a tap outside of our gate to offer clean water to our neighbors. It mattered to us that we shared!
Every day, for more than a decade now, hundreds of women have walked to fill their yellow jerry cans before placing them on their heads to return home.
Our Living Room team has witnessed, as a result, waterborne sicknesses in our community reduce significantly. The gift of water has also strengthened our relationship with the community. Our neighbors know we value them because we are committed to sharing what we have.
In 2023, Living Room is hoping to increase water access points within our neighborhood, and we want to invite you to be a part! We are needing to fundraise $5,000 to complete this project.
