A positive impact for over 6,000 lives!
The community of Chebior is a sub-location of Kitany located in Elgeyo Maarakwet County, Kenya. Situated in the Northern Rift Valley, Chebior is comprised of approximately 1,500 households with a population of 6,000 people.
There are no water systems that currently serve the population of Chebior. The river where mostly women and children collect water, is also used for livestock watering and laundry. The water quality is impacted by the multiple uses, making it unsafe. The healthcare facilities do not have access to enough water to provide maternity or operational services to patients.
A proposed water system will include the development of an intake structure and protection of the spring. It will also include the construction of a solar-powered pump and pump house, seven (7) water storage tanks, five (5) elevated tanks, and two (2) ground masonry tanks, in addition to installation of water distribution lines.
Thank you for making a positive impact with us!
