Provide Clean Water for 1000 People in South Kivu

Context and Problem

In the rural areas of South Kivu, in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), more than 1,000 people suffer from a severe lack of access to clean drinking water. Existing water sources are often neglected, poorly maintained, and expose communities to dangerous waterborne diseases such as cholera, dysentery, and typhoid fever. The absence of adequate water supply infrastructure and poor hygiene practices further exacerbate the public health crisis in these areas.

Project Objectives

This project aims to:

• Provide sustainable access to clean drinking water for 1,000 people in rural areas of South Kivu.
• Significantly reduce waterborne diseases by improving water quality and hygiene conditions.
• Build effective water catchment systems tailored to local needs.
• Rehabilitate existing water points to make them safe and functional.
• Raise community awareness on hygiene and water management practices.

Expected Impact

• Significant improvement in public health.
• Sustainable reduction in waterborne diseases.
• Empowerment of local communities through water management training.
• Increased community resilience to health crises.
• Overall improvement in quality of life and well-being.

Estimated Budget

• Total project cost: $9,500
• Amount raised so far: $36
