Updates from our WASH programm Alebtong, Uganda

By Viktoria Wilckens | Fundraising

Much progress in the construction work and more girls going to school - exciting news for you from our project at 7 schools in Alebtong, Uganda!

Read here all of our achievements since May at 7 schools in the Alebtong district in northern Uganda:

Energy-saving stoves with significantly increased capacity and school gardens were installed at four schools. As a result, regular school meals are now provided, leading to higher attendance rates and better grades, among other benefits.
To improve sanitary conditions, a total of 80 latrines have been built. The latrine blocks for girls also include a washroom that can be used during menstruation.
Many older female students have returned to school thanks to the improved conditions: at Atelelo School, the number of girls has risen from 230 (at the beginning of 2024) to over 800! In addition, each latrine block has been equipped with a rainwater collection system, a 1,000-litre water tank and seven hand washing facilities per school.
Due to water shortages, in addition to the three newly built wells at the Ebule, Obangangeo and Atelelo primary schools, four other wells at the Obuo, Omoro North, Omele Modern and Agoro primary schools were renovated. Not only the pupils, but the entire communities benefit from the newly created access to clean water.

Without your support, our work would not be possible. If you want to stay up to date with our work and get more insights, feel free to follow us on Instagram!

Until then all the best,
