Project Leader:
Sister Srjoyce Matage
We are Sisters of the Blessed Virgin Congregation based in the Ichuni Catholic Parish in the Diocese of Kisii. We run apostolic activities that include education in primary school, hospital care, catechesis in the parish and ministering to the sick and aged in our local community. We lack safe drinking water. During the dry season, most of the rivers dry up and the children, Sisters and the people living in the area wander from place to place looking for drinking water. They end up consuming water that is also used by animals. This contaminated water transmits diseases. In our hospital, 80 percent of the children we treat are suffering from diarrhea due to waterborne diseases. We therefore urgently need to construct a big water tank that can store harvested rainwater and supply the entire community. Any kind of help you will be able to offer is a blessing. Help us secure safe drinking water.

Thank you Mission team for 4th he support of the underground water project you supported us with this year. We have done the tank and are already harvesting rain water, storing in tank and fetching from the tank see the photo. The school children are at home due to CORONA Virus lock down and I will be able to show you their pictures as they enjoy the fresh tank water as soon as schools reopen. We as the sisters of the Blessed Virgin congregation THANK you very much for supporting this community project .we pray for you all. Sr joyce-kenya
