Many parts of Uganda suffer from the problem of clean and safe water, even where wells exist, they don’t have enough clean and safe water for the communities. Mothers and Children spend most of their time fetching water for families, moving long life-threatening distances in search for water. It is unfortunate that our community members are mostly utilizing rain-water and swampy water which are totally unsafe for their health and well-being. It is made worse with a lack of proper toilet facilities.

During most of our community engagements, our Community Facilitators have learnt that cases of rape and defilement among children most especially on the Girl child and women have been rampant due to long distances moved in the process of searching for safer and clean water for home use. To date, we have been able to engage and sensitize the rescued girls and women on how to build back better despite of what has triggered their minds by seeking for justice and life changing opportunities. These efforts can not be achieved alone without your support as we aim to bring water sources closer to households that need clean water the most in the rural communities of Eastern Uganda.
