Problem:

Goligoli Parish rural community with estimated population of over 4,300 people suffers from a lack of clean water supply. The community has undergone unheard human miseries due to constant droughts and unreliable rainfalls. Most of the rivers and wells in the area are seasonal, an indication that there is no constant water supply. The community relies on water from wells, which run dry if droughts persist. There are also ponds of stagnant water which are used by both human and animal community. Thus people are generally at the mercy of their creator since the cleanliness of such waters is not assured.

Project Idea:

The project idea is to improve access to clean water for rural community at Goligoli Parish through sinking of a borehole. There will be a Community Network that will ensure full participation of community at different stages of the project.KCOC (the implementing organization) will provide project committee that will oversee the planning and implementation phases. The organization will get the boreholes drilling company and water pump Supply Company; it will also coordinate the entire project while seeking technical advice from the experts.
