In many our posts you can see ladies wrapped in colourful blankets. These are Shukas - crafted from cotton, they are not just a fashion statement but a vital part of Maasai life and culture. Predominantly red, the shukas also come in blues and purples, each color and pattern symbolising different aspects of identity and clan affiliations. Beyond their use as garments, shukas serve as protection against the elements, blankets, and even ceremonial attire. #MaasaiTradition #CulturalThreads

Average Swiss person consumes 162 litres of water per day. This includes water used for drinking, cooking, cleaning, and other household activities.

In remote village of Mperrishi in Kenya for the same activities people consume only around 1 litre of water per person per day. The same is true for many neighbouring regions. The process of getting water home is laborious, and water delivery to the tanks happens only once every month.

WeCare Association helps families in Mperrishi by supplying local school with water and food. For many parents that is the main reason to send their kids to school. You can help us in our endeavours by donating on our website today.

In Kenya, women and children often bear the brunt of water scarcity, spending significant time fetching water and bringing it home. This is how Maasai ladies carry water in Mperrishi.

Many villages in rural locations don’t have constant access to freshwater, with nearest wells located miles away. In Mperrishi water gets delivered only once a month and is kept in these POA Tanks, 5.000 litres of water each, a total of 20.000 litres every month.

These tanks also require maintenance. WeCare-Association helped to repair the Tanks in Mperrishi in 2023, so that the people continued having access to uncontaminated water.

Here are people fetching water from the Water Tanks, which WeCare-Association helped to repair in Mperrishi in 2023.

Did you know, that The United Nations identifies Kenya's population as among the most struggling globally? The water scarcity problems are exacerbated by factors such as rapid population growth, environmental degradation, and poor infrastructure. Natural disasters, such as soil degradation and draughts, further worsen the situation.

The distribution of water resources is unequal, with women and children often bearing the brunt of water scarcity, spending significant time fetching water, which exposes them to dangers and health risks.

Today marks International Day of Zero Tolerance for Female Genital Mutilation. These girls represent the faces of FGM, facing the peril of being cut, deemed impure until they undergo this harmful practice. It’s crucial to rally all stakeholders to understand that cutting them means shattering lives. Let’s spread awareness and work towards providing them education and a brighter future. Together, we can ensure zero tolerance for FGM. #NoFGM #EndFGM #EmpowerGirls #EducationForAll #ZeroTolerance #GirlsRights #BetterFuture
