Water Project
‘Water is life’ always says Monty Wright, the founder of an amazing non-profit organisation that helps build water sources for the people in eastern Uganda. Despite having a wide range of water source all over the country, a lot of these are rivers, lakes, ponds, swamps, underground springs that are all untreated and not safe for drinking nor home usage. This causes a wide range of water borne diseases which causes death in most infants as well as adults in most areas of the country. We have therefore, created a plan to improve unprotected water sources into protected and clean water sources that can be utilised by people at a free cost and help improve their livelihoods.
Uganda being a tropical country that experiences a tropical kind of climate, we are blessed with two annual rain seasons as well as dry seasons, although some parts of the country and much drier and do not receive enough rainfall. We have therefore put a plan in place to help in rain water harvesting, which can be preserved and used by the households in the future.
