Current status

Project plan

The Namelok foundation has a local counterpart in Kenya, Foundation Namelok Kenya. They are in charge of monitoring all the projects on a regular basis. They provide help with training and maintenance of the rope pumps. The Dutch Namelok foundation visits the area 2 times a year to evaluate the finished projects.

Especially women and children benefit from the water wells, they do not have to walk a long distance anymore to collect water for their families. The water from these wells is of better quality, which will reduce the prevalence of water born diseases.
