ABOUT Toilet block for Kataboi Dispensary, Kenya

Kataboi is a community on the western shore of Lake Turkana, the world’s largest permanent desert lake. The environment is harsh all year round. This dry and dusty landscape is very difficult to farm and the people who live here traditionally rely on pastoralism to make a living by herding goats, sheep and camels.

The Franciscan Sisters of the Immaculate manage a dispensary in Kataboi and provide outreach health services to nomadic communities. Sr Faith Samongi recently approached SPICMA for help in funding a new latrine. Currently there is a single one, and this is in a poor state.

Their hope is to build a 4-door block (2-doors for women and 2-doors for men) which will significantly improve the comfort and hygiene of the patients and staff. We would very much like to help them with this.

The total cost of the project is £4,700 and anything you can contribute would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!

Charity Registration No: 270794

For more than 58 years, SPICMA has been reaching out to the poorest and most marginalized in the developing world. Individuals and small communities often lack the means of approaching the larger charities, or their needs are believed to be too small for consideration by them. This is where SPICMA has focused its work, helping tens of thousands with development grants and emergency aid.

NB If surplus funds are raised for a specific appeal, the trustees retain the discretion to use such funds to support other SPICMA projects.
