Project
Calvary Cross Junior School
Project Complete!
Calvary Cross Junior School is located in Luwero district in the Central region of Uganda. The students have to travel 1 km to the nearest bore hole well to meet the school's water needs. In addition to the students, approximately 1,000 people use the same water source for their daily water needs, as well as sharing with neighboring schools, causing students to have to wait up to an hour for their turn to get water.
Fetching water robs students of valuable class time. It also poses serious risks to children at Calvary Cross Junior School; there is significant risk for mugging and crimes both at the source and along the route to and from the school.
Project Proposal:
Installation of a rainwater collection system (RCS) on school grounds, 2 hand-washing stations, and community WASH education.

H2O for Life is not a WASH (water, sanitation and hygiene) project implementer. We have partnerships with non-governmental organizations (NGOs) implementing WASH in Schools projects around the world. Our NGO partners match funds needed for each school project. We also have a generous donor that provides us with an interest-free loan that, along with matching funds, allows for many projects to be started or possibly even completed before total funds have been raised. In rare situations we reserve the right to reallocate funds to alternate project(s).
