Water for needy
We came up with this idea inorder to identify those who can't afford to buy water and register their details and location in our mobile app and order water on their behalf to delivered. We have done this physically since we couldn't afford to hire a developer to design app for us, though we were giving the poor people some jerricans , we couldn't afford to give them much water that they need (5 jerricans)
We started to identify those who can't afford to buy water and register them on our blog waterforneedy.blogspot.com and buy water for them and deliver it to them. once we get enough capital we hope to higher a developer to design a mobile app which is simpler to update and use.
Our project is currently serving almost 25 families and we hope to reach 50 families which almost 15 are in our draft.
Me and my friend have been buying water physically and deliver them to the Registered families, we update our table weekly and update the table on our blog monthly.

- Kenya
- Growth: An organization with an established product, service, or business model that is rolled out in one or more communities
Currently we are serving 23 families and 15+ are in our draft Incase we get excess donation in a week we buy for those in drafts
We are applying for an exposure and get more information on how we can help our society,as well as requesting for funds that could help us manage and run our project.
- Product / Service Distribution (e.g. delivery, logistics, expanding client base)
- Technology (e.g. software or hardware, web development/design)
We use the eblogger of google to update our table and currently we hope to build a mobile app for easier updating
Our goal is to register and have a big positive impact on our people especially those who are needy and can't afford to buy more meal

We started this initiative on January this year, we are progressing well with our little Capital, we have reached 23 families in four months, we hope to reach 50 by June,
We intend to design a mobile app which is long term project and hope to reach out to more than 1000 families
We use a simple technology in our project
- A new application of an existing technology
- Software and Mobile Applications
- Kenya
- Somalia
- Uganda
- Nonprofit
We have inclusivity in our team where our vice chair is a female who is among the pioneers of this group
Our organization is necessarily for non- for profit and we usually collecting some small capital through donations and we buy water for the needy and get it delivered to them
- Individual consumers or stakeholders (B2C)
We hope to generate revenue through advertising on our blog or mobile money in future so that we can sustain our project and initiative
We are yet to generate income
