Project
Paltino Primary School
Project Complete!
Staffed by 5 volunteer teachers, Paltino Primary School has no source of water. The children must bring their own water from home or collect whatever water they can find on their way to school each morning. Many of the students have to leave home much earlier in the morning than they should in order to wait their turn in line at a community well. Other students gather water from any convenient, but dirty, source that they walk past on their way to school each day.
- Country: Uganda
- District: Pader
- Sub-County: Puranga
- Parish: Apwor
- Village: Pomuna

The school is currently closed, but our implementing partner, Drop in the Bucket, will drill a well that will provide safe water on school grounds for the students when it is time to return.
Project Proposal: New borehole well
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).
