The Samburu Project

The Samburu Project collaborates with communities in developing countries to enhance men, women and children's daily lives by providing resources that address immediate needs while promoting long term sustainability and self-sufficiency along with cultural integrity. The Samburu are a pastoral nomadic tribal community of over 150,000 people living in an arid, remote area of Northern Kenya just above the equator.

Samburu women walk up to twelve miles every day looking for water and often return home to their children with nothing. ..
