Kirishi village on Mt Kilimanjaro now has running water!
With the amazing work of Bente (Uru coffee Estate) in Moshe, Tanzania and the financial help from CoffeeSnobs everywhere more than 1km of water pipe has been trenched and the village has a tap!
Previously Kirishi used a furrow to flood irrigate to a well and water was carried from there. Using an open furrow is a wasteful way of moving water around as most of it seeps into the ground or runs off in the wrong direction. With the simple addition of Bentes vision, a long length of poly pipe and some hard work the village now has running water at the dispensary.

Villagers will now save for their own pipe to attach to the main and clean running water will be available to every home.
Another excellent FairCrack result, CoffeeSnobs should stand proud!
