Kakinzi YMCA Primary School
Serving 417 students in Uganda’s Mukono community as a private day school, Kakinzi YMCA Primary School currently relies on water from a nearby borehole but continually finds its needs unmet. The borehole is unreliable and frequently breaks down, so students have to fetch water from other sources off school grounds. These water sources are also unsafe so are treated with chlorine and other chemicals before drinking, but the water retrieved is not stored safely afterward. In order to protect the health of students and redeem critical classroom time, Kakinzi YMCA Primary School is in need of a rainwater collection system that will provide safe water for drinking, handwashing, and more.
