Bringing Safe Water to Paryem
October 8, 2026
For the 421 students at Paryem—located in the Palaro sub-county of Gulu district, Uganda—access to clean, safe water used to be a daily struggle.
Until recently, the school relied on just two unreliable sources: a seasonal spring that dried up completely during dry spells, and a contaminated water hole. Neither provided safe water for the students.
Everything changed thanks to our implementing partner, Drop in the Bucket, who drilled a brand-new borehole well directly on the school grounds. Paryem students now have a permanent, safe source of clean drinking water right where they learn.
A huge thank you to our supporters who made this transformation possible:
