The Kaani community was facing a severe shortage of clean and safe drinking water. The existing water sources such as from the rivers and little rainfall available were contaminated, leading to various health issues and diseases including Amoeba, Bilharzia, and H. Pylori among the residents. Recognising the urgency of a solution, Samuel Njunguna, a CorpsAfrica/Kenya volunteer, worked with his community to facilitate and take action to implement a water purification project during his one year of service to solve the issues faced in accessing clean water. In collaboration with CorpsAfrica/Kenya, the community was able to implement the water purification project. Here's a glimpse into this transformative community project https://lnkd.in/dAhV6-B8 #CorpsAfrica #CorpsAfricaKenya #CorpsAfricaSA #ThisIsCorpsAfrica

In the semi-arid region of Illasit, where rainfall is limited and unpredictable, the practice of crop farming has become exceedingly difficult. This challenge has resulted in high unemployment rates and a lack of stable income sources for the local residents. To address this pressing issue, Edward Maina, a dedicated Volunteer working in the area, facilitated a cattle fattening project from its conceptualisation to its execution over the course of his year-long service. Here is a glimpse into his project: https://lnkd.in/dSg-fNah #CorpsAfrica #ThisIsCorpsAfrica #CorpsAfricaSA #NonProfit #Impact
