Mwikawa has 200 households and 4 surrounding villages.  In total, the 4 surrounding villages have households totaling 631.

Difficulties these villagers currently face:

• School children are going very late to school.
• Last year, 4 people suffered from cholera and 2 people died of it.  More than 10 people have already experienced diarrhea this year.
• Due to the long wait at the water source, families have had some problems. 3 families were divorced due to issues pertaining to water as the husbands were suspecting their wives of going out with other men and only pretending that they were getting water.
