Kiorori DOK Primary School

Kiorori is a very poor school that has over 450 students, ages 7-20, including around 37 special needs students. Sweetwater Outreach was able to install a 5,000 L tank in 2021. Prior to receiving the tank, these students would have to bring water that was up to 3 km away from school every morning and afternoon. These students say they are incredibly happy since receiving the tank, and only rarely, during the dry month, do they have to fetch their own water and walk with it to school. While they still do not have a purification system for their water, the collection of rainwater has resulted in fewer cases of typhoid and other waterborne illnesses, however this is still very much a need for these schools.
