Bringing Clean Water and Hope to Kakamega, Kenya
29:11 Inc., a global nonprofit with local roots in West Virginia, is working to complete a critical well project in Kakamega, Kenya. For more than a decade, 29:11 has served street-connected children and their families, and the next step is preparing the new House of Hope property—a safe space for meals, counseling, small business training, and community support. Before those doors can open, a sustainable source of clean water must be in place.
In rural Kenya, families often walk up to 6 kilometers (about 3.7 miles) each day to fetch water, and nearly 15 million people lack safe drinking water. Many children resort to unsafe sources for drinking and bathing, putting their health and education at risk. This well will change that—providing clean, reliable water for the House of Hope and serving up to 1,000 people in the surrounding community. Beyond meeting daily needs, it will also support agriculture projects that help sustain the program long-term.
The fundraising goal for this project is $12,000, and with the help of partners like Rotary, 29:11 is working to bring lasting hope and health to children and families in Kakamega.
