Borehole well drilled!

Kabuli Primary School is located in a village named Bukwaya, which is in the Iganga district of Uganda. The school has 210 boys and 237 girls, but we anticipate those numbers going up now that they have a source of clean water. Our implementing partner, Drop in the Bucket, recently drilled a new well to provide safe water for Kabuli students on the school grounds. 

The closest water source was a borehole well used by the local community, located about half a mile from the school. Once the children arrived at the well, they had to wait their turn in long lines before getting water, causing them to miss valuable class time every day. The school and the neighboring communities will now use the new well, providing clean water to many additional people.
