Access to handwashing facilities remains one of the most effective defenses against Ebola transmission. Because of your support, additional handwashing stations are being installed across high-risk border communities between Uganda and the Democratic Republic of Congo.
These facilities are strategically placed in high-traffic areas such as markets, transport hubs, schools, and community gathering points. Each station is accompanied by clear guidance on proper handwashing techniques to maximize effectiveness.
As a result, more individuals are practicing hand hygiene consistently throughout the day. Communities are reporting increased awareness and adoption of preventive behaviors, with handwashing becoming a routine activity rather than an occasional practice.
These stations are particularly valuable in areas where access to clean water is limited, ensuring that prevention measures are accessible to everyone.
Your support is helping turn simple infrastructure into a powerful tool for disease prevention. By making hygiene accessible and visible, you are contributing to safer environments and reducing the risk of Ebola transmission across vulnerable populations
