Notes
Keneth made a visit to kisumu village to follow up and encourage members to build their hand washing stands and general sanitation improvement.he and chairman lc one together visited a few homes to encourage,guide,and sensitive the members on hand washing stands construction and home ideal facilities for general sanitation improvement. He visited a-resident who had his latrine wall was about to fall and health educated-him on the previous visits and he had provided its wall,smeared it ,roofed it and this time he had provided a hand washing stand with Kibo Jerrycan and used and he thanked mr Tom for his tiresome efforts in the village and Kibo at whole. He further visited more homes where he guided members on dish racks to be outside and under the sun so that when it shines on the utensils,it helps to kill invisible pathogens on them. He met a member of the village who was preparing her lunch meals and during the walk around her home,keneth saw stoves that resemble those of the Kibo kitchens program and this was an empowerment that when this program kickstarts in this village, it will be of ease since some residents have interest and have ideas. Keneth met a member who had a pit latrine whose content was with in 3ft under ground and health educated him on the dangers that can result due and he promised to start off new pit to be dug and on this subsequent visit he had dug 20ft depth and promised to make it 30ft and start off slab casting .on this visit he visited homes and sofa 11 new hand washing stands constructed and the village hopes to improve
