Shinyanga Project

KMI Brands have partnered with Oxfam to help support the Shinyanga Project. The project is taking a multiple approach to tackle the issues around education and sanitation; through this project 10,000 people will benefit from improved water and sanitation facilities by:

  • Constructing rainwater tanks for four schools.
  • Installing latrines for both girls and boys in each of the four schools.
  • Building four wells for their communities.
  • Train 100 new teachers and provide further training to 368 year one and year two teachers.
  • Support 340 existing mentors and train 20 new mentors.
  • Supply materials to schools for children with disabilities.
  • Produce child-centred teaching guides for every school in Shinyanga.

“Seven school communitites are to benefit from both rainwater tanks in the schools, and shallow wells for the communities.” Kim Shilton - Oxfam
 

“Our products promote washing and bathing, and in most cases are made with water. A simple shower after sports or a relaxing bath is often a luxury which we take for granted. Millions are without basic water and we wanted to find a project which had water at its heart and felt that Oxfam’s long term projects in Tanzania were enabling communities to address many issues” says Rachel Groom - General Manager, KMI Brands.

“We are delighted to be partnering with KMI Brands. Both Oxfam and KMI share strong ethical values and a commitment to caring for the global community and supporting the planet. We’re excited about the impact we can have together and right now KMI’s support is vital in helping us to get access to clean water and sanitation to over 10,000 people in Shinyanga, Tanzania.” Chris Ashworth - Corporate Partnerships

 
KMI BRands will embark
 

“The team here at KMI Brands made the decision that we would get involved in water relief work together with Oxfam. We are participating and enabling the building of wells and water access for over 10,000 people in Tanzania, Africa. We will be involved with this project over some years to come and will be donating some of our income to financing the project over the next few years. You will also be able to help us very soon by donating direct to our website. Thank you so much for your support and please do come back to read more news on this project as it progresses. ”
