Lily Muldoon, project director for Kenya, has just returned to the United States. Her work is a testament to the power of individuals to improve lives. SMRC has worked with her in Kenya for 3 years, and we have achieved life changing improvements working in partnership with the Kayafungo community.

Among the achievements over the last year: Construction of 14 latrines, 20 handwashing stations, one primary school, class at a secondary school, a water dam for 900 people, training for 160 Community Health Trainers, HIV/AIDS testing and education for 132 people, rainwater catchment systems at a primary school and health dispensary, and a micro-loan for a health clinic. Young people can do anything!
