well projects

Here is Nixon our contractor wearing his Tembo Kenya cap and proudly displaying his motor bike. He bought a second hand machine in good condition and took a driving course. He is now able to zip around to all the water projects, saving time and money.

We visited the Imulama site on Tuesday to meet with the committee. They are very excited about gaining a supply of clean water. The community put in the dispensary and the Ministry of Health has promised to upgrade to a health centre if there is water. (Julius the jeweler is on the left just in front of Rod) We showed you their present water source--a dirty pool-- in a previous post.

On Wednesday we went to the site at Mvilingi where we are protecting a spring. The pictures show the pipe in place, the dug area where plastic sheeting and clay will be laid on the rocks to prevent contamination. The spring should be finished today.
