Project
Wangui Primary School
Project Complete!
Wangui Primary School is located in Ndaragwa division, Kathuha location, Ngamini sub –location.
The only available storage for rainwater is one small plastic tank that was donated by the community and this serves as the main water storage structures. Wangui has good rainwater harvesting potential as the area experiences high rainfall. During the dry spell, the school gets water from a nearby community water pan. Wangui Primary School has a total population of 333 (pupils and teachers). According to the assessment conducted in February 2013. It was noted that the school draws its raw water from a nearby stream 50 meters away from the compound. The school has good roof catchment though, not tapped. The sanitation situation is characterized by poor hygienic conditions, almost collapsing.
This project will include rainwater catchment, new latrines, a handwashing station and hygiene education.
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).
