Buliganwa Project a Success

Posted by Steve Hall on March 5
Buliganwa Primary School, located in the Nabitende sub-county of Iganga district in Uganda, has a total enrollment of 447 students, comprising 210 boys and 237 girls. The nearest water source to the school was a community well situated over a kilometer away. Being a public well, it frequently has long queues of people waiting to collect water. Consequently, students were spending precious time in queues when they could have been in class. The school needed to establish its own water supply.

Our implementing partner, Drop in the Bucket, recently drilled a new borehole well providing safe water on the school grounds. The students and the surrounding community will benefit from this well for years to come!

Thanks to Holy Taxiarhai and St. Haralambos Greek Orthodox Church in Niles, IL, for supporting this project!
