Kiunga, Kenya

Severe drought hit the remote coastal village of Kiunga, Kenya. The village was forced to use brackish water to bathe, cook and drink. The water was untreated and dangerous, with E. coli becoming a factor. Due to the lack of clean water, children were dying of kidney failure and the overall health of the village deteriorated.

Bringing safe water to a community

The GivePower Foundation used the Spectra 20,000-gallon containerized watermaker system to provide a long-term, fresh water solution for Kiunga. The system was paired with a solar array, so external power was not required. Local maintenance workers were trained to service the unit, and it continues to provide enough clean water daily to the entire community.
