Since I joined the Oikos project I have been able to provide food for my children and allow them to study. Thank you so much!

— Namayani Simoni, beneficiary of the S.A.F.E. Gardens project

We had known about the passion, the enthusiasm and the "folly" with which Oikos people pursue their objectives. We are proud to help out!

It is the first time that we have a well organised Water Consumer Association in our district. This is a big result and for us it is a guarantee of sustainability.

— Michaeli Abeli Nanyaro, Secretary of the MAKILENGA Board

Today we can gather water much more often because the distribution points are only a few minutes from home. It has changed our life.

— Eliasile Urio, Distribution Point care taker, Oldonyongiro
