We have completed a new project: bringing clean water to the village of Kipsina, which is located up the hills from the farm. There was no source of running or even clean water. The closest source for them is a small river nearly a mile away.  We piped it up into a reservoir tank with a spigot at the bottom. The people will have to pump the water everyday to keep the reservoir full but it will be a community water source that will eliminate the chances of disease,  and lessen the strenuous walk for animals and people.
