Some community details (provided by our in-country partners)
With COVID-19 and the need for frequent hand washing and sanitization, a new burden descended on schools- the need to have constant supply of water for school children, who are in overcrowded classrooms and usually in frequent contact with each other. The Elementary school in Kwaita is delighted to have this steady supply of clean water within the school premises. The pump was changed to a more durable AFRIDEV pump.
