Hand washing is an important tool in the fight against the spread of Covid-19, as such, there has been a great increase in demand for water in schools.
To help meet the demand, we have given schools 10,000-litre rainwater harvesting tanks to ensure they have continuous access to clean water. Additionally, 35 schools received two handwashing tanks each to help promote handwashing among students.
Phase two of the school project has started and will target 31 schools. The schools are set to receive school furniture, re-usable facemasks, rain water harvesting kits and hand washing tanks.
Total interventions for phase two include;
- 6,500 reusable facemasks to 14 schools.
- 360 Classroom desks and 10 office furniture.
- 24 Hand washing facilities to 12 schools.
- In the process of installing 2 Rain water harvesting tanks each 10,000lts capacity.
- 18 latrines to 4 schools.
- 20 desks to Don Bosco Primary School.
