Hope Springs Water's newest W.A.S.H. (water, sanitation, hygiene) zone is in Bungoma County, Kenya, where the initial wells are planned to help widows and orphans.
Kenya Country Coordinators Candace and Damon Donnell spent two years building a relationship with InJesus Global Missions and End Times Church Pastor Moses Wafula. The pastor oversees the spiritual and natural needs of 25 churches, 4 orphanages that provide for a minimum of 400 orphans and 100 widows. Each day, these orphanages load 50-gallon containers onto mule wagons to retrieve the day's water. They spend an average of 8 hours a day collecting water.
Further development projects in this region are endless. The vision for this area includes clean water, merely as a starting point alongside hygiene education, and regular meals. Part of this vision is to construct living space, schoolhouses, and facilitate structurally, a means to self-sustain the financial demands to run such an endeavor.
