q2: A NEED FOR WATER The people of mathengera live in a day area people and animals and even plants suffer from drought from time to time when tere is no rain falling for many of these people do not have water tanks in their homes to retain water when the normal rain fall. But ia was on 5/8/2009 when an organization called swim visited our area and talked to us about the lack of water because people use to travel long distances to fetch water from the rivers. They taught the area people how they could dig shallow well and get water from the ground and the need for water could be solved.people agreed with them and they were taught how to find it and they started digging the wells and the peple are drawing water from the shallow wells and they are feeding their animals and plants with the wells water. This idea of digging shallow wells is a good one and is a succeending one and bring the community from water problems. The work of swim group of shallow wells will be remembered from now and for ever in our area and in various palces in our country kenya and the whole golb at large. may God bless swim for ever Amen

q2:There is a time when swim visital communities in Ngarian Laikipia what constituency in Kenya.Ngarua is a dry area in Kenya and people walk long distances in search of water from dams and ponds which are seasonal.Therefore this organization called SWIM had come at the right place and the right time and was most well come because water is life and without water all creatures would die. Water according to this organization is detected using L shaped wires and when water is located wires which are held parallel to the ground as the dowser walks around the target area the wires will cross runing the point should be marked as there is underground water.Water is a problem in dry areas like Ngarua in Laikipia and oorganization like swim and other should come and ,assist. Boreholes dams and springs should be constructed especially this time when there is a dry spell.Donors should be consulted for this matter ans swim as the pioneer of this program should encourage residents to form groups and CBO inorder to manage this task.Thank you SWIM and continue with your vision.

q2:I learnt about SWM from a friend and concluded that SWIM can solve or meet my water needs. Our area is a semi arid area and water problems are experienced all the time long. My plot is situated near the area through where the rain water passes during the rainy season and i have no resources to enable me harvest this water. My shamba is potentially useful if i have water to irrigate it. The local community will equally benefit from all kinds of vegetable and also my family and my animals. I hope that SWIM will consider my cases and do the needful. Thank you.

q2: Gabage collection has been a problem in Kibera slums for a long time there has never been any effort by local authority (city council) in reducing gabage menace in Kibera since they view it as an informal settlement and there is no access roads to the slums .But the youths in here have come up with their own gabage collection programmes at a fee. Their collect the waste and through the group STARA they also recycle these waste to make bio gas which also acts as a form of fuel to the residents. The youths who were previously unemployed are now earning their livelihood from this project thanks to the innovative and entrepreneurship of these young Kenyans.
