EARTH Water joins the KLABU!
We’re thrilled to welcome EARTH Water as a long-term partner supporting the KLABU clubhouse in Kalobeyei. To raise awareness for the cause, we launched a limited edition water bottle during Amsterdam Dance Event.
The Kalobeyei Refugee Settlement is located in northern Kenya, near the border with South Sudan.
In Kalobeyei, Village 1, the KLABU Clubhouse was launched in 2019.
Home to more than 80,000 refugees from several African countries, Kalobeyei is a place where sport brings people together and where clean water is essential to life and health. Amid daily challenges, moments of play, connection, and hope make a real difference.
At the heart of the settlement stands the KLABU Clubhouse – a vibrant space where refugees and host community members unite through sport, music, and friendship. It includes a sports library to borrow equipment and a community area offering internet, music, and relaxation. Run by a local team of KLABU Managers, it’s a hub of energy and pride that strengthens the community from within.
Maintaining such a space in a remote and resource-limited area takes continuous effort. That’s why EARTH Water and its partners donated €30,000 during their annual Water & Wine event at the Royal Tropical Institute in Amsterdam — helping to improve the KLABU Clubhouse, enhance access to water, and support the people of Kalobeyei to keep playing, connecting, and thriving.
