Faces of Water
Jacqueline
Njoguini Primary School in Nanyuki, Kenya

“We were heartbroken for failed hope in getting water.”
Meet Jacqueline, in the community of Njoguini. This community had a water project fail them – leaving them with a poorly producing well with long queues that sometimes completely ran out of water. When this happened, Jacqueline explains: “we would have to go far – around 10 km – to get water.”
There was not sufficient water for drinking, irrigation, or general well-being. The community was suffering and the primary school was at risk of shutting down without reliable water. Now, Njoguini has a reliable source of water that is plentiful and clean.
“Our lives will be greatly improved.”
