Heavy rainfall is impacting 38 of the 47 counties in Kenya, causing severe flooding that has impacted thousands. WTW is responding to the flooding by working with ground partners to provide membrane filters that will make clean drinking water more readily available.

Disaster Response Background
Since our inception in 2004, Disaster Response efforts are at the forefront of our work, it’s simply part of our DNA. We get critical resources to people in need, deliver aid in times of crisis, and restore access to water in dire situations. Months, even years after the crisis, WTW can still be distributing filters or rebuilding water systems destroyed by a natural disaster or conflict.
​
We responded to disasters around the globe including the 2010 earthquake in Haiti, Storm Uri in Texas, hurricanes in Florida and the Bahamas, the Philippines Super Typhoon, plus WTW helped in the US and abroad during the Covid-19 pandemic just to name a few.
