In Progress : MANDA MAWENI WATER SUPPLY

About the Project

The Manda Maweni community has never had access to clean water, so the school and community have been paying for water to be trucked in. Fresh water is available across the strait in neighbouring Shela, on Lamu Island. This project will fund a well in Shela that will benefit a school there, and add an underwater pipeline to Manda Maweni Primary School. Water will be pumped into a tank where community members can collect it.

This project is supported by the Zelma Kay Memorial Fund.
