Planned activities include protecting springs, drilling boreholes and building rainwater tanks. To find out more, click on the links below.
Protecting a spring
Protecting a spring prevents the spread of waterborne diseases.
Drilling a borehole
Drilling a borehole enables the community to collect water easily and safely using a pump.
Sinking a shallow well
Sinking a shallow well means the well is only deep enough to reach the water table and is covered to prevent surface contamination and reduce evaporation.
Building toilets
Building toilets dramatically improves sanitation and reduces the spread of disease.
Constructing rainwater tanks
Constructing rainwater tanks is important as it allows the community to access reliable drinking water even in times of drought.
Training the community
Training the community is a great way to ensure improvements are sustained long term.
