Czech donates Sh760,000 to sink borehole for home

The Czech Republic has raised Sh760,000 to help drill a borehole for a children’s home in Doldol. One More Day for Children Safe House, which experiences perennial water shortages, is home to 66 children, who are survivors of beading, female genital mutilation and early marriages among other atrocities. They were rescued from Laikipia, Isiolo, Samburu and Nyeri counties.

“We understand challenges children face especially walking 2km to Doldol Dam to fetch water. They have been risking their lives since wild animals from Mukogodo Forest also frequent the dam,” said Jiri Pergl, a Czech national.
