Transformative Innovations at Project Maji

By Muneeza Aftab | Advocacy & Communications Officer

Dear Donors,

As we bid farewell to 2023, we wanted to share the incredible strides we've made, thanks to your steadfast support. This year, we proudly introduced three groundbreaking and purpose-built sustainable solutions: Core Maji, Micro Maji, and Household Connections.

Core Maji: Imagine a compact kiosk, equipped with a 2,500-litre tank capable of delivering over 5,000 litres a day. Core Maji stands as a cost-effective solution, efficiently meeting the demand for water supply in diverse communities.
Household Connections: Revolutionizing access, this innovative approach utilizes a solar-powered borehole and storage tank to deliver water through a pressurized network. This network includes prepaid public kiosks and individual household connections, covering an area of 1 to 2 square kilometers. Your support has enabled us to bring this transformative solution to communities in need.
Micro Maji: Picture a 2,000-litre tank constructed from easily transportable pre-fabricated metal, effortlessly mounted on a standard cemented floor using anchor bolts. The simplicity and mobility of Micro Maji make it a versatile and accessible solution, positively impacting various communities.

Your generosity has fueled these innovations, allowing us to address water scarcity in a more efficient, sustainable, and community-focused manner. As we move into the new year, we're excited about the continued impact we can create together.

Thank you for being a vital part of the Project Maji family and for championing our mission to bring clean water solutions to those who need it most.

Best Regards,

Your Friends at Project Maji

Training in session

Dear Donors,

This is a quarterly progress report on our operations in Kenya. This year, we have focused on building internal capacity to be ready to scale to meet our increasing donor commitments leading to an internal restructuring of our Country team.

We are pleased to provide an update on the appointment of Community Health Volunteers in Kenya as part of our restructuring efforts, taking care of advocacy on our WASH (Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene) training initiative.

Introducing Joyce, our dedicated Community Health Volunteer whose role also extends to a fulltime Community Manager. Joyce plays a pivotal role in our project, serving as the first point of contact for Caretakers and Community Leaders. She fosters strong relationships with the villages, enhancing our situational awareness and enabling us to respond promptly to any issues, ultimately preventing larger problems from arising.

In addition to her key responsibilities as a Community Manager, Joyce also oversees the coordination of local handymen, known as "fundis," who handle minor repairs. With her expertise and guidance, we can maintain and improve the functionality of our water systems, resulting in enhanced uptime and faster response times.

Furthermore, Joyce has undergone comprehensive training on Issues in mWater, a powerful tool that allows us to effectively monitor and assess water-related challenges. This knowledge empowers us to provide more efficient support, ensuring the sustained availability of clean water for all.

Together with our partners and the dedicated team members like Joyce, we remain committed to creating a brighter, healthier future for the people of Kenya. We invite you to join us on this remarkable journey and help us make a lasting impact.

Thank you for your continued support and belief in our mission.

Forever Grateful,
