Children in Dawanu drink from dirty streams during the dry season, causing illness, missed school, and costly medical visits. You can help us drill a clean-water borehole and provide LifeStraw purifiers at the school. Your gift means safe water, better health, and more days in class.

Challenge

In Adaklu Dawanu, families walk 30 minutes, often two or three times a day, to collect drinking water from a dirty open stream shared with animals. This unsafe water leads to frequent illness, especially intestinal worms, keeping children out of school and forcing families to spend scarce resources on medical care.

Solution

This project will provide a safe, reliable water source directly in the community. With clean water close to home, families can stay healthy, children can focus on school, and time spent fetching water can be invested in education, work, and community life.

Long-Term Impact

Access to clean water will reduce disease, improve school attendance, and strengthen family well-being. Over time, this will foster healthier, more educated, and economically resilient families-breaking the cycle of poverty and building a stronger future for the entire community.

This project has provided additional documentation in a PDF file (projdoc.pdf).
