Sonde Global Junior School

Uganda 561 beneficiaries

Sonde Global Junior School is a private boarding and day school that serves nursery and primary students. 31 staff members serve roughly 530 students, 25 of whom are also boarding. The primary water source is piped water on the campus, but it often breaks down and does not provide sufficient water for the school. The flow is inconsistent, and water needs to be fetched from other sources during all seasons. Students fetch water twice a day, roughly 20 boys and 20 girls. The school spends roughly 670,000 Ush ($181 USD) on monthly water expenses. A rainwater collection system will provide an additional source of water and storage capacity when water is unavailable elsewhere.

South Sudan School 1 (2025)

South Sudan

Our implementing partner, Water for South Sudan's, operations teams are based in Wau and work in remote villages in the Bahr el Ghazal region of South Sudan. These isolated villages have extremely limited access to clean water, and often can only access contaminated water that will lead to sickness or even death.  WFSS works with local governments and community leaders to determine the placement of wells. The goal is to create sustainable systems, incorporating well maintenance and training as part of the installation of a well.

St. Bruno Mwembe Primary School

Uganda 426 beneficiaries

A government-aided primary and nursery day school, St. Bruno Mwembe Primary School hosts 412 students, taught by 14 teachers in 8 classrooms. The primary school water source is piped water into the yard. Still, this source is highly unreliable, and staff described it as of poor quality, with an unacceptable color and taste. It is sometimes unavailable during daytime hours, typically only four days a week. Students fetch water twice a day and often miss class in the dry season to find alternate water sources. Most of the school’s water-related expenses center around treatment, which they do by rudimentary filtration and boiling.

St. Kizito Kayabwe Primary School

Uganda 722 beneficiaries

St. Kizito Kayabwe Primary School hosts roughly 700 primary school students, taught by 17 teachers throughout 10 classrooms. This day school is government-aided, relying on governmental funds for support. Although piped water is on school grounds, it is highly unreliable, and students, mainly girls, must fetch water twice a day. The facility spends 130,000 Ush monthly (roughly $35 USD) on water alone. Additionally, students and staff must boil the water before it can be used to wash dishes, prepare food, and/or drink. To eliminate health concerns among students, we are hoping to install a new rainwater collection system and provide water filters and handwashing stations.

Water for Nasaruni Girls – 2024

Kenya 200+ beneficiaries

For over 10 years, Nasaruni has been nurturing girls from the surrounding and far-reaching rural villages. They have grown to graduate from primary school, and now we built a high school so that they can keep to school. Parents have come to truly embrace the education at Nasaruni because it supports their cultural values and traditions in so many tangible and real ways. Nasaruni girls celebrate Maasai culture through dance, language, beadwork, food, and folktales. Most importantly, the parents in the community chose the values of the school themselves so that they trust Nasaruni to raise their daughters. Nasaruni Academy is helping girls and their families to write a new future full of hope, health, empowerment and success. Started by a local Maasai woman and her husband, the Academy and Secondary School are providing a chance for education to over 200 girls currently.Nasaruni Academy is situated 9km west of Narok, in the southwestern region of Kenya. According to Moses Sayo, School Director, the Nasaruni community is predominantly Maasai, who are pastoralists with some sporadic practice of small-scale farming. The area surrounding the school consists of approximately 7000 families. Some of the main challenges faced include the illiteracy rates and poverty. If you come to Narok and turn down a dusty, pot-holed road outside of town, you will travel 1 kilometer past ramshackle sheds and smiling shop clerks…  to find a magical place where dreams come true, laughter and serious study unite. Here, girls are nourished, educated, and thoroughly transformed as they grow into young women of purpose and confidence in the Maasai community. Welcome to Nasaruni Academy for Maasai Girls in Narok, Kenya!
