The only water source is a dambo, a shallow, marshy wetland where murky, contaminated water collects among the mud and vegetation. Learners and teachers from the nearby primary school crowd together with villagers at the water's edge, crouching to scoop this brown, sediment-filled water into pots, basins, buckets, and whatever containers they can find. The water is shared with livestock and wild animals, and this area is at high risk for cholera and other waterborne diseases, presenting severe health risks to the entire community. With funding now secured, drilling, construction, and a blessing by Father Petros will follow, and this page will be updated with photos and video once the well is complete.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Water of Mercy","offers":[{"title":"Village Water Well Donation","offer_id":46468408410309,"sku":null,"price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0712\/0859\/9749\/files\/KAPITO-PHOTO-2026-06-13-03-21-12.jpg?v=1782750517","url":"https:\/\/waterofmercy.com\/products\/kapito-village-well-project","provider":"Water of Mercy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
