PEM Penny War & Plant Sale

The Plainview-Elgin-Millville School Science Club successfully raised $1,263.22 through their “Penny War” and Mother’s Day Plant Sale. The funds will be used to assist their adopted school, Saviefe Deme Community School in Ghana, in installing a water pump, PVC piping, and a poly tank with a stand. Access to clean water and improved sanitation after extensive flooding will provide the school with essential support.

Projects in Need

H2O for Life has many projects available all around the world, but here are 3 that are most in need right now. VIEW MORE

Our Lady Parents School

Uganda 550 beneficiaries

Serving 500 students in Uganda’s Kasoma community as a private day and boarding school for primary students, Our Lady Parents School Luwero, currently relies on water from a shallow well but continually finds its needs unmet. The well does not provide enough water for the school, meaning students often miss class to find other sources. This well has a latrine within 10 meters, meaning the water is unsafe for consumption. The school spends an average of $97 USD every month on water expenses alone, funds that should go to curriculum materials or even toys for the students. In order to protect the health of students and teachers, Our Lady Parents School Luwero is in need of a solution that will provide safe water for drinking, handwashing, and more.

Saviefe Deme Community School

Ghana 150 beneficiaries

Saviefe Deme is a rural community located in the Volta region of Ghana and has a population of approximately 3,100 people. The major economic activity in the community is subsistent farming, trading, and hunting. The people are very friendly and accommodating.  Saviefe Deme Community School was established in 1964 by the Government of Ghana in partnership with the community. The school has not received any major development from the government since its establishment, so the community members always come together to support the school through communal labor with the support of other organizations. Being the only school in the area, the school currently has 150 students ranging from kindergarten to grade 9.
