Illness as a result of waterbourne diseases is a persistant challenge for children in schools. Poor sanitation practices exacerbate this issue, often decreasing levels of attendance when children feel too unwell to come into schools.
To combat this, our staff delivered hygiene kits to 1069 children over the past three months. The kits include all the basic items needed to keep children safe. Simple items such as soap, toothpaste, nail clippers and a towel can make all the difference. Staff also show children how to correctly wash their hands and when it is important to protect children from becoming unwell.
Just another way that the small things really do make a big difference.
Once again, thank you so much for your continued support that allows us to support so many children who face such huge challenges. We really appreciate it.
