Flooding Disaster in the Villages and Restoring Hopes Ministry's Intervention

Restoring hopes aims at poverty amongst marginalized members of society caused by droughts. To start with, Muhoroni Sub County, where Miwani village is located, receives a lot of rain during the month of December up to April. This then followed by a severe drought which runs from April up to August, then followed by a season of short rain fall.


However, during the rainy season, a lot of undirected and untapped run offs results to flooding, displacement of people, destructions of property, deaths and water borne diseases like typhoid and diarrhea. This calls for proper channeling, collection, water storage for human and domestic use, roof water harvesting and treatment/purifications of harvested water.

Restoring Hopes have an outreach mission to offer visit to widows and orphans that are affected during flooding. For instance, members of the organization had to visit widow Marry Otieno who had everything destroyed by flood; her house was vulnerable to flood and she had no idea where she could get rescue with her little child. She did not know water would cover her house and destroy almost everything. She realized it at dawn when she woke up ready to go for her rice plantation that water has flooded her house and went with almost everything she had.
