I am just south of Nairobi right now documenting some projects for Charity:Water. I arrived last night along with my good friend Lane Wood from Austin, Texas who happens to be the one who introduced me To Charity Water a few years back. We spent most of the day driving and visited 3 clinics that were in need of clean water. 1 clinic is in an area called Kibera slums, where the violence broke out this past January during the election. There is an estimated 1 Million people living in a 5 mile raduis…. It’s just people on top of each other everywhere. The Well that has recently been dug drilled to 300 meters ( almost the heigth of the sears tower to get the idea).. They are still putting the finishing touches on it…. I am still in awe of the fact that they can dig this deep and reach water.. We are trekking around with Mac and Sami from Living Water International.. the next 2 weeks are going to be a fun adventure. More to come..
Kibera Slum – Population one million within five miles
