Queen Maria Inaugurates First Water for Humanity Project in Kenya


Kitui/Kenya - We Care for Humanity (WCH) initiated the Water for Humanity project in Kenya, led by Queen Mariam Leonor Torres Mastura, alongside Dr. Stephen Kalonzo Musyoka (10th Vice President of Kenya), Hon. Gideon Mulyungi, and Hon. Irene Kasalu, as well as the local residents of Tita, Katuluni, and Waita ward, Mwingi Central.

During the project launch, former Vice President Musyoka highlighted the importance of providing clean water access to communities in need. The collaboration between WCH and local leaders demonstrated a shared commitment to enhancing the lives of residents in the region.

Queen Maria's dedication to the cause was reflected in her address, where she highlighted the tangible benefits of the project, “although it is a modest project, it will benefit 3000 residents, 800 donkeys, 600 cows, and over 3,000 goats in this area. We plan to initiate more Water for Humanity Projects to support women and girls who travel long distances in search of water during dry seasons.”


Looking ahead, the WCH founder envisioned implementing additional Water for Humanity Projects to alleviate the struggles of women and girls who must travel long distances to find water, particularly in dry periods.

The collaborative and compassionate spirit showcased at the inauguration event sets a positive tone for future efforts aimed at improving water accessibility and enhancing the quality of life for communities in Kenya and beyond.
