Clean Water

Don't drink the water unless its been filtered!

Water is life. Clean water is abundant life.

Clean water is foundational to health, hygiene, and dignity. In rural Kenya, it’s often out of reach. Your support helps bring safe, reliable water to communities where it’s needed most.

Clean Water Changes Everything

In rural Kenya, many families have water, but it isn’t safe to drink. Contaminated sources put lives at risk every day, leading to illness, lost income, and missed opportunities for education. At Start With One, we believe access to clean, safe water is vital to a fulfilled life in Jesus Christ.

That’s why we distribute the Uzima Water Filter, a life-saving tool designed specifically for communities facing water insecurity. “Uzima” means “abundant life” in Swahili, and that’s exactly what these filters offer: lasting health, restored dignity, and a better future.

  • Supports hygiene and overall community health
  • Frees up time and energy—especially for women and children—otherwise spent gathering unsafe water
  • Restores dignity and reduces fear of disease
  • Empowers families to focus on growth, education, and economic development
