The river that weaves through the dense slums of Mathare behind the KINATCO Community Hall is one of the main rivers in Nairobi. It is unfortunately highly polluted and unusable. MaSCA is leading a project to rehabilitate the Mathare River and its surroundings by engaging local youth in clean-up activities, landscaping, community infrastructure development, and the creation of sustainable sanitation and waste management systems.
Community organizations and volunteers got together for a day of river cleanup – see video below!
