Lycee nationale de carice
Established on November 4, 2002, “Lycée National Philippe Barthélemy de Carice” commonly known as “Lycée National de Carice” has been a cornerstone of education in the commune of Carice for grades 9-12. Despite years of dedication and perseverance, the school continues to face major structural and infrastructural challenges, limiting its ability to provide a fully supportive environment for its students.

Precious Gift Primary School
A private primary boarding and day school in Uganda, Precious Gift Primary School Zirobwe has 27 teachers serving 326 students. The school’s main water source is a shallow well with a pump, which often breaks down. When the pump is broken, it takes 107 minutes (almost 2 hours) to make a single round trip for water collection from the nearest source. The school also spends over $80 USD every month on water expenses. Providing a brand new rainwater collection system, handwashing stations, and water filters would change life at this school and for everyone in the community around it.
Rena Light Nursery and Primary School
Rena Light Nursery and Primary School hosts 410 primary and nursery school students, taught by 14 teachers throughout 7 classrooms. Their main water source is an unreliable piped water source that is rarely available during school hours. The school spends an average of $25 per month on water-related expenses in order to purchase necessary water from vendors. The school does not currently treat its water, meaning it likely contains contaminants that will result in illness. In order to redeem valuable class time and eliminate a health concern for students, we are hoping to install a new rainwater collection system and provide water filters and handwashing stations.
Septic Tank Cleaning #1 (2027)
In 2022 our implementing partner, DigDeep, conducted a sanitation pilot to better understand the issue on the Navajo Nation. They learned that many of their clients, who they had been serving through their water programs, were also lacking access to basic sanitation, like a flush toilet, in their homes. Many families rely on outhouses, while others have septic systems in place, but they are not operational and many families cannot afford the high costs associated with repair. They also learned that some homes may be eligible for connection to mainline sewer services, but because their bathrooms were out of code, they were unable to connect to these services. As a result of these learnings, DigDeep deepened its commitment to providing sanitation services to clients across the Navajo Nation. In 2023, as part of DigDeep’s sanitation pilot program, they completed 15 septic tank installations, 120 septic tank cleanings, 2 leach line replacements, and 9 bathroom upgrades—serving 466 people in 146 households. In addition, they installed its first-ever dual water and wastewater system, complete with a full Home Water System, a 1,000-gallon septic tank, and a toilet!
South Sudan School 1 (2027)
Our implementing partner, Water for South Sudan, operations teams are based in Wau and work in remote villages in the Bahr el Ghazal region of South Sudan. These isolated villages have extremely limited access to clean water, and often can only access contaminated water that will lead to sickness or even death. WFSS works with local governments and community leaders to determine the placement of wells. The goal is to create sustainable systems, incorporating well maintenance and training as part of the installation of a well.
