If you have read some posts on this blog about Jackson, you know he shuttles between two worlds. In one, he guides guests as they enjoy Kenya’s wildlife, in the other he helps his family herd their cattle.
Jackson and his wife Susan Nekwama have two children, Mereso Sanau and baby Lesiamon. When I told Jackson that I want to find some way to help his village get a well, he replied, “This is very great. I have had this idea for long. Now during the dry season, Susan and others are getting water four miles away from our village. I always pity them but I had nothing to do to help them. I support this 100%.”
My goal is to one day visit Jackson and draw water from their village well. I have begun another blog to tell the story of getting help from old friends and family and making new friends as Jackson and I work to provide a well for Oltorotua, his village.
