EWUASO ONKIDONGI COMPREHENSIVE SCHOOL

Location: Ewuaso Town, Kajiado West Sub-County, Kajiado

Amara started working with this school in 2024.

This school was selected because there was a need to improve the sanitation facilities for the boys who made up55% of the student population.

The best solution to address these challenges was to construct an ablution block.
