Volta Project a Success

Posted by Steve Hall on March 14

Have is a rural community located in the Adaklu district in the Volta region of Ghana. The major economic activity in the community is subsistent farming and hunting. The people are friendly and accommodating. BEFORE: Have School, with a current population of 129 students, lacks any source of safe water since its old borehole stopped working long ago.

Kabuli Borehole Drilled! Kabuli Primary School is located in a village named Bukwaya, which is in the Iganga district of Uganda. The school has 210 boys and 237 girls, but we anticipate those numbers going up now that they have a source of clean water.

The closest water source was a borehole well used by the local community, located about half a mile from the school. Once the children arrived at the well, they had to wait […]
