Red Cross Garissa Emergency Response

Garissa County, Kenya

Client

Kenya Red Cross Society

⚠️The Challenge

Severe drought in Garissa County had dried up shallow wells and reduced borehole yields. Over 20,000 people faced acute water shortage requiring emergency intervention.

Our Solution

Rapid response program: rehabilitated 4 failed boreholes (desilting, pump replacement, chlorination), drilled 3 new emergency boreholes in high-need areas, and installed temporary diesel pumps for immediate water supply.

📊Results & Impact

  • 20,000+ people received emergency water access within 30 days
  • All 7 boreholes operational within project timeline
  • Daily water production: 200,000+ liters
  • No cholera outbreaks despite drought conditions
  • Community water committees established for sustainability
