The sachets were handed over to village officials by Joseph Wanene, the company's Managing Director, as a way of promoting communities to use modern technology in the access to clean and safe water. The sachets are aimed at enabling residents to have pure water for drinking and learn how to use such technology. He emphasized the need for locals to consume clean water in order to avoid water related diseases. He also noted that the 'small' contribution to this village will be increased in future since the company has been helping the community in the past.

The sachets will last the village a period of two months.
