Here's the Guidestar report: http://www.guidestar.org/profile/58-2060131

It's an organization that aims to help provide potable water to communities in Kenya. Personally, I think the goals are admirable but I think we're not helping by continuing to treat Africans like children who have to be shown how to wipe their noses, etc.

America should be contributing to rid these backward third world countries of the governments that keep them in such poor condition, rather than treat the symptoms of corruption such as lack of water.

I wonder why we don’t hear about nomadic tribes in Africa being affected by lack of water resources? Maybe there really isn’t a problem until someone invents one.

I’m 67. Went to roman catholic school.
In 2nd grade we used to collect change in little UN cans for the starving African babies.

60 years and nothing has changed.
