Loboi Dispensary, which was once closer to the shores of Lake Bogoria, was forcefully relocated after water rose to unprecedented levels at the Lake. Now stationed further inland, the facility has become a critical health hub for hundreds, including those displaced from insecurity-prone areas. With this increased demand, the dispensary has been grappling with a severe shortage of clean water — a dire situation for both general treatment and maternity care, where water is essential for sanitation, safe deliveries, and postnatal care.
In response to this urgent need, in collaboration with Forum for Women in Development, Democracy and Justice (FODDAJ), we successfully delivered a 5000-litre water tank to the facility. This vital resource will go a long way in supporting life-saving services, especially for expectant mothers. Access to clean water ensures safer births, better hygiene during delivery, and improved recovery conditions for mothers and newborns.
We are proud to be part of a solution that upholds the dignity and health of our people — and we remain committed to amplifying their voices and addressing their most pressing needs.
