Project
Maggya Primary School Latrines
Project Complete!
In Mpigi, Uganda, Drink Local Drink Tap (our implementing partner) has partnered with the community and school for many years. Maggya Primary School is in dire need of two latrine blocks (VIP- ventilated improved pit latrines) to help 513 students and teachers. The school is used as a church, so churchgoers will have access as well.
The stench of the current latrines is unbearable, they are cracked everywhere and the floor will collapse soon. The current latrines are not ventilated, not private, and the size of the rooms cannot safely accommodate all the people.
Drink Local Drink Tap builds long-lasting, drainable latrines which cannot collapse and will last for decades. By building these latrine blocks, boys and girls can stay safe and healthy, be more encouraged to attend school and feel proud of their environment. Going in the open without privacy and stepping in other peoples' mess can be an issue of the past with your help.
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).
